News From the Vision Store:

Vision Store Parramatta Closed Feb 21 to April 22 Due to Building Renovations.

As of February 29, Vision Store no longer selling Apple products.

Product Spot Light: Mini Guide.

One of my most longest used sonar type devices for obstacle detection.

Products that I will be investigating:

Ultra Cane.

Sonar Glasses.

Object Detection with LIDAR on iPhone 12 Pro and Above

Note I said Object Detection and not object recognition which as far as I'm concerned still has a long way to go.

Humanware and JAWS using Split View Braille

Great to see this: being able to monitor 2 separate things at the same time with a Braille display.
