Although the outfit looks a bit clunky, but quite good, let's take a look at the video below: The biggest feature of the software is that it can identify special objects and send voice prompts. For example, when you go to a door, it prompts you to go to a door, and then tell you how far from the door, close to the door will also prompt to open the door, is indeed a very convenient software.  While the waist of the vibration belt seems to have some superfluous, but for the deaf people, this belt is also very useful, it will be based on the distance from the object to adjust the intensity of the vibration, the closer, the more intense vibration.
