Fantastic day demoing the Virtual Guide Dog at the @UCL / @RNIB Symposium!

Beyond the code, we wanted validation. The biggest win? Hearing a tester say they felt "completely at ease" navigating with the app.

Lab tested. Real-world approved. ✅

In March, #VirtualGuideDog hit a major milestone with our first trial at @Aico_Limited!
With Sight Loss Shropshire, we proved spatial audio makes buildings intuitive for independent travel. 🎧📍
