Virtual pubs, robot guide dogs and face masks
Manage episode 268915734 series 1301228
There are now more places where you have to wear a face mask but there are exemptions if you have a disability. The national charity Sense says the government should do more to raise awareness of exemptions as they report a rise in the number of abuse cases related to the wearing of masks.
Could a robotic guide dog ever replace the real thing? We talk to Anthony Camu, a student who has designed a prototype of a new device that leads the user as a guide dog would, and Angela Wood, chair of Hab Vi UK, about the pros and cons.
And if you're still not sure about going out to a real pub, how about The Staying Inn, a virtual pub, especially welcoming to blind and visually impaired people, where the pub quiz doesn't have a picture round.
