Engineers have introduced a new device for the visually impaired



Scientists at the University of Cincinnati introduced the Enactive Torch, the device that helps visually impaired people to move around in different conditions.

Looks like a large TV remote and flashlight, the new product uses infrared rays to scan objects in front of her. When the device detects the object, Enactive Torch emits a faint vibration, passing it on a bracelet, which increases as it approaches the obstacle.
