  • Playing for survival: the blind Japanese woman Rieko Hirosawa keeping a music tradition alive.
    DUKAS_172486940_EYE
    Playing for survival: the blind Japanese woman Rieko Hirosawa keeping a music tradition alive.
    Goze - women who earned a living as musicians despite sight impairments - are all but forgotten in Japan but Rieko Hirosawa has learned their songs.

    Rieko Hirosawa sits on a stone bench outside her home, tunes her instrument and takes a deep breath. She unleashes an impossibly high note while her bachi plectrum slaps the three strings of her shamisen, a traditional instrument.
    That she now plays with the composure of a veteran is remarkable for two reasons: not a single goze uta musical score exists, and even if the chords and notes had been written down, Hirosawa would not be able to read them.

    Rieko Hirosawa, with her guide dog Sophia, performs the music of the goze – itinerant blind and visually impaired women who earned a living playing the shamisen. Japan

    Playing for survival: the blind Japanese woman Rieko Hirosawa keeping a music tradition alive.
    Goze - women who earned a living as musicians despite sight impairments - are all but forgotten in Japan but Rieko Hirosawa has learned their songs.

    Rieko Hirosawa sits on a stone bench outside her home, tunes her instrument and takes a deep breath. She unleashes an impossibly high note while her bachi plectrum slaps the three strings of her shamisen, a traditional instrument.
    That she now plays with the composure of a veteran is remarkable for two reasons: not a single goze uta musical score exists, and even if the chords and notes had been written down, Hirosawa would not be able to read them.

    Rieko Hirosawa, with her guide dog Sophia, performs the music of the goze ñ itinerant blind and visually impaired women who earned a living playing the shamisen. Japan

    A talking wheeled robot guide to help blind and visually impaired people get around has been announced.
    The device, called Glide, actively steers the user safely around obstacles. 
    The unit is designed to operate all day on a single charge.
    US tech start-up Glidance says a user holds the Glide’s  handle in one hand walks  at their own pace.
    Glide will simply guide by steering its wheels.
    It has  obstacle detection for both stationary and moving objects.
    A camera and sensors allow it to detect and direct users  to key waypoints and line-of-sight targets.
    A  haptic handle which sends a warning movement to the users along with an automatic braking system lets a person know when they arrive at their planned destination.
    An active scene description voice feedback keeps the user updated on relevant details within their environment.
    It can be pre-programmed with the most frequent routes.

    An AI equipped headset for the blind that maps the world and gives feedback to guide them using movement and sounds is set to hit the market this year.

    Romanian startup .lumen says the device uses similar technology to that used by self-drive vehicles such as cameras and range measuring LIDAR, only scaled down.

    The device , called officially .lumen Glasses, behaves like a virtual guide dog.

    Once the user puts them on, they become capable of acknowledging their position and movements in 3D, understand where they are and how they can interact with the environment around them.

    They can ask the headset to take them to a destination such as supermarket, bus stop or when out to return home.

    Because it is continually scanning the surrounding environment it knows to look out for and avoid obstacles.

    As well as guiding, the device can read product labels to aid shopping.

    A spokesperson explained: “If until now the dog used to guide his owner by pulling his hand, .lumen will do the same, except that the focus will shift from the hand to the forehead. “
