People Wear These Weird Shoes And Nobody Knows Why

Many of us have experienced the excruciating pain of a stubbed toe, an unavoidable accident in life. Navigating this world can be a challenge, even with our sense of sight. Now imagine the tribulations faced by the visually impaired, those individuals who must navigate the maze of life without the light to guide them.

Traditionally, visually impaired people rely on canes or other aids to navigate their surroundings without unfortunate collisions. Some even find companionship in the company of trusty guide dogs. However, a technological revelation is on the horizon for these resilient souls.

Imagine this: shoes that act as sentinels, alerting wearers to the presence of obstacles, much like the proximity sensors in cars that prevent unfortunate collisions when reversing. Thanks to the innovation of an Australian company known as Tec-Innovation, this is no longer a fantasy. They have come up with InnoMake shoes, which house an ingenious built-in sensor. These shoes vibrate or beep, acting as a vigilant sentinel whenever an obstacle appears nearby. Amazingly, they have the ability to detect obstacles up to a remarkable 4 meters away.
