Microsoft (NASDAQ: MSFT) is reportedly working on a new wearable device - a headband that could help blind people navigate their surroundings using sound alone. The so-called 'Alice band' works by bouncing information from sensors mounted on street furniture to a receiver in the wearer's headband, according to a report in the Sunday Times. This information is then relayed to the wearer in the form of audio signals, via an earpiece. To read this full article, please click here: http://www.telegraph.co.uk/technology/microso...blind.html
