A great addition would be a small Bluetooth wearable camera that you could wear on your ches or hat. That way, you wouldn't have to make sure you are holding the phone correctly.
You can move the phone from left to right until you start hearing and feeling the feedback. It will be coming to Android down the road, but there is no word on when exactly.
@@VisionForwardTechConnect my friend from Austria wanted to try it on his iPhone but seems this app has region dependent limitations and it works only in fiew countries as he discovered on their website.
That's great, but I know a lot of crosswalks that have trees near the cross lights, so it would be great there, and also where there is no button that can make the cross sounds, it would be good there as well. Like they say, it's not a replacement for O&M skills, it's another helpful tool like your cane or guide dog. Personally it would be really great in those spots where the trees are just over hanging. You know it's straight in front of you but can't quite fully see it. The oko would come in handy then.
The timers depend on the amount of lanes you have to cross usually. Here in Las Vegas they start at 20 but some are higher if more than 6 lanes of traffic. PS. Don’t stop the jokes!

Yes we agree! We talked to one of the developers about that on our live show
Hold the phone flat against your chest or use a slinger.
Some kind of phone mount would definitely be helpful
How do we know which way to point the camera and is it going to be available on Android?

Blind and visually impaired individuals should not always rely on technology, they should just rely on their senses
Senses are very important, but there's nothing wrong with supporting them using technology
What is fair but what if your battery is low on power?
@@shinegraymon6731 Great point, that's why relying on your own skills always has to take precedence over relying on technology.

Thanks for the info! And the vote for the jokes 😁

The developers are working on an Android version
