Thank you

This live web event has ended. Thank you for attending.

Description

Join Peter Tucic and Mathieu Paquette for a discussion of how one can best utilize electronic navigation aids such as the new Stellar Trek to further increased awareness and efficiency when traveling. Peter will spotlight how artificial intelligence can now even further augment one’s orientation and mobility skillset to better understand any environment when traveling with GPS devices designed specifically for the visually impaired. This device can both assist the seasoned traveler as well as someone who may be newer to vision loss.
