A Unique Travel Experience for the Visually Impaired with Traveleyes and TrekkeR

Finally the info is on the Humanware.ca web pages. I met up with Amar Latif, from Traveleyes in leeds just before the release of Trekker 3 and he was intrigued by the technology and the opportunities it would open up for him as an independent traveler. It was a pleasure to drink coffee and talk with him and help bring our two respective companies and ideas together with our Humanware technology enhancing his ability to travel internationally.

Colabritive Satellite Navigation POI Database

This Colabritive Satellite Navigation POI Database looks a good idea. These POI could be used with Trekker after a little formatting.

Thanks to Dave W for bringing this to my attention.
“At the present time, the database contains the locations of
Disabled (Blue Badge) parking bays and Radar Key toilets.
The facility is provided for free and the files created are also provided for free.”
