crossing light pole.
I came across this app called, "Button by Neatebox". It looks interesting!
Button by Neatebox (iOS, Free)
18 years working for Guide Dogs for the Blind watching my blind and visually
impaired friends struggle to interact with pedestrian crossings prompted me
to look for a solution which would make the lives of all disabled people
easier in this area.
Many crossings poles are out of reach or too far from the crossing to be
useful so I set up Neatebox and looked for a way in which we could press the
button at the crossing using our mobile phones.
"Button" by Neatebox is the result of this hard work and gives you a
hands-free remote crossing control from your phone. It removes the need for
you to make physical contact with the crossing pole and leaves you free to
focus on a safe and efficient crossing.
Simply download the free app and input your details and you are ready to go.
At this time there are limited locations in which the system can be used but
we are keen to install more. If you feel that a crossing near you could do
with an innovative solution such as this please let us know using the
'request a crossing' feature within the app's settings and we will contact
the Local Authority on your behalf to ask for our system to be installed.
Current Version: 1.02 (February 1, 2018)

May you walk gently through the world and know it's beauty all the days of
your life.
