Hi
I think it would be great to have means of just typing in where you want to
go and having the chair go that way or telling you at least what's around in
a building.  Once at a hotel someone gave me something that was like a
little receiver and was supposed to help with navigation but I didn't find
it helpful.

Hi. I am new to this list and definitely interested in finding out info from
all of you who have been using wheelchairs and walkers. I was born totally
blind as of now 67. My knees have given out so I am looking to switch to
walker or wheelchair. I work as a psychotherapist in two large office
buildings and so need to be able to travel significantly. I am especially
interested in guidance systems for chairs and walkers. Has anyone done work
with attaching autonomous vehicle technology to walkers or wheelchairs? I
cannot seem to find these options on the Internet. Very much looking forward
to responses. :-) Karen
