Subject: [Nfb-seniors] Help needed for student project on improving 
indoornavigation


Hello,

I apologize for posting to multiple lists.  I am visually impaired myself,
and I also do research to support others in various ways such as in school
and using technology.

I have a graduate student who is started his research in improving indoor
navigation for the blind and I need him to understand the issues, concerns,
and needs that adults who are blind have when traveling indoors.  I have
appended his email below, and I appreciate any help you can offer.

Thanks you,
--Steph

Hello,

I am a graduate student from the Rochester Institute of Technology in
Rochester, NY, working with Dr. Stephanie Ludi.  I am working on research
to enhance indoor navigation by the blind through the use of assistive
technology. As a part of my research, I need to better understand the real
world issues and perspectives by adults who are blind whether navigating
within familiar or unfamiliar buildings.  I am looking to interview 15
adults who are blind or legally blind, and who use either a cane or guide
dog.

Interviews should take between 30-40 minutes over phone or Skype.

If interested, please contact us if you’re interested in participating, or
if you have any questions at akhnaifer at gmail.com.  Your help is greatly
appreciated.

Thank you
