Sometimes, it is only extraordinary to see how technology is used to make the world an excellent source to live is to people reduction fortunate. One such complaint has been think out and tackled by Anirudh Sharma aka touchaddict on IRC. It is called, le-chal (Translated to ‘take me there' in Hindi).
Sharma conceptualized and demonstrated the network at MIT ( Massachusetts Institute of Technology) Media Lab Design and Innovation Workshop 2011.
The Le Chal network comprises of a span of shoes, one of that is propitious with Vibrators, vicinity sensors and a Bluetooth desk pad that is related to an Android phone that calculates directions and real time location using Google Maps and the phone's built-in GPS and compass module.
For all the people mission arduino a ‘toy' and ‘too-simple' here is a fact. This idea was prototyped in 6 days. The ease gave the inventors an choice of diversity.
As per his presentation, the network expenses hardly a couple of hundred rupees to arrange with 8 mini vibrational motors costing Rs 90, a solitary of specified dimensions, an Arduino Lilypad GSM+GPS block law done for Rs 400 or a wired chronicle costing Rs 150 for all the components.
The boots have moreover been tested at a Bangalore formed blind college and has received certain reviews from everyone.
