Yes, the compass on the iPhone could be used for that purpose. However, the best it offers is an extra vibration when pointed north. When holding the phone flat with one hand, use the other hand to place a finger at the center of the screen. When changing direction it will give an extra vibration when facing north. | Lerone Walker > On Oct 1, 2024, at 10:04 AM, Lawless, Domonique (DBVI) via NOMC <members(a)lists.nbpcb.org> wrote: > > Good morning, > I hope you are all doing well.

Tactile Compasses

Good morning, I hope you are all doing well. Recently, I've been asked by several Deaf Blind travelers about tactile compasses. I've scoured the internet and so far, I've found places that used to sell them, but they are either discontinued or out of stock. Does anyone know if they still make braille/tactile compasses? If not, can the compass on the iPhone or Android phone be configured to use haptic feedback to indicate the appropriate cardinal direction one is facing? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Louisiana Tech Request for your Assistance
by Edward Bell 18 Sep '24

18 Sep '24

Dear NOMC: We are seeking your assistance with a project to help with training new graduate students who are matriculating through the O&M and Rehab programs at Louisiana Tech University. As part of their training during the Introduction to O&M class, students must watch cane travel instructors working with students in differing situations and environments. While it would be wonderful for our students to follow and observe each of you in your daily work, we realize that this is simply not realistic. And, while we believe that in-person, real-time observations will always be the gold standard, it is equally important for students to observe a diversity of instructors, students, and instructional environments. We here at Louisiana Tech University are seeking your assistance. We are looking to capture audio (and where possible) video of Structured Discovery instructors teaching primarily adult students. As noted, video would be great; however, what is critical to each Structured Discovery lesson is the dialogue and overall interactions between instructor and student. Given the myriad technological options available to us today, I believe this is possible for most of you. If you have a cell phone that can record during your lessons, a portable audio recorder, or any other device that is capable of capturing the instructional lesson, then we are seeking your assistance. Ideally, a small handheld or lapel microphone worn by both student and instructor would be optimum; however, the key is to be able to hear the lesson in progress. Of course, as with all cane travel lessons, the discussion of the route before the lesson and the debriefing at the end are also very critical aspects of the entire experience. We are looking for recordings of between one and two hours for each lesson in total, inclusive of pre and post lesson discussions. Obviously, this would require the verbal and/or written consent of any adult students with whom you work. Any/all consent would be managed between you, your student, and supervisor where appropriate. For this reason, we are not currently looking for recorded lessons of any minor under the age of 18. While we cannot offer financial compensation at this time, any and all work that you do towards this end may be counted towards your recertification with the NBPCB. While I cannot tell you the exact point value at this time, I can assist with proper documentation towards your CEU points. This work would fall under categories 2 and 3 of the current NBPCB recertification process. If you are interested in assisting us at Louisiana Tech University, please contact either myself or Kristen Sims at: Edward Bell ebell(a)latech.edu <mailto:ebell@latech.edu> Kristen Sims ksims(a)latech.edu <mailto:ksims@latech.edu> Thank you for your effort towards providing optimum training for the new generation of Structured Discovery professionals.
