Sunu band is a wearable smart-band with an in-built sonar feature that helps people who are blind or have low vision to detect and navigate obstacles at and above waist height. It uses vibration to detect objects between 0.5 meters up to 5.5 meters away. The haptic vibration feedback informs how close (or far away) the user is to obstacles. It is best used in conjunction with a white cane or dog guide as both mobility aids.

General Details

Extra product information

Sunu band is a sonar smartband that improves navigation for the visually impaired. Sunu band combines sonar or echolocation with gentle precise vibrations to inform the user about objects or obstacles within their environment. Sunu band augments awareness of the user’s personal space, reduces accidents and ultimately improves confidence while providing a more fluid and enjoyable mobility.

The band, emits a high-frequency sound wave that bounces off of objects that the user encounters, and the resulting vibratory pattern changes depending on how close or far away the object is to the user. Specifically, the user feel vibration pulses on the wrist that become more frequent as an object is close or less frequent as the object is farther away.
