<br>
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. <br>
<br>
Interviews should take between 30-40 minutes over phone or Skype. <br>
<br>
If interested, please contact us if you’re interested in participating,
or if you have any questions at <a href="mailto:akhnaifer@gmail.com">akhnaifer@gmail.com</a>. Your help is
greatly appreciated.<br>
<br>
Thank you</font>
