The article discusses a groundbreaking shoe design tailored for individuals with visual impairments, created by the Austrian firm Tech-Innovation. These shoes, referred to as InnoMake, feature sensors capable of detecting obstacles from a distance of 0.5 to 4 meters. Upon detecting an obstacle, the shoes alert the wearer through vibrations or auditory signals. They are powered by a rechargeable battery that can last up to a week, requiring approximately 3 hours for a full charge. Users have the ability to modify settings via a complimentary app, which includes options for adjusting the alert distance. Additionally, the shoes are designed to be water-resistant, and the sensors automatically turn off when the wearer is seated, reactivating upon movement. Prospective customers have the opportunity to test the shoes in select stores across Austria prior to making a purchase.
