These are not Moccasins

Great idea for a general use wearable, especially when the technology becomes so inexpensive and compact that one can simply have several socks with similar, built in technology.

There are around 285 million visually-impaired people in the world, according to the World Health Organization, and most of them are in India. While testing the shoes, the company realized its potential for the sighted as well. For example joggers, mountain bikers or even tourists can plug in their destinations and not have to stop to check their phones as they move because the buzzing in their shoes will let them know when to turn.

Of course, cheaper glasses, access to opticians, ophthalmologists, and cataract operations would go a long way for helping the visually impaired.
