Lets try an electronic Guide Dog, shall we:

The components are pretty basic: Servo motors to steer, GPS for navigation, camera for object detection (as well as SONAR and Infra-red). Simple! No? No?

So the idea is you can use it to guide visually impaired persons to and from their choice destinations precisely and using audio call outs ensure you don't have reliance on the electronic device.
Simple test bed with simple graphics capture and GPS module, and servo driver. Uses embedded computer to do the graghics computation
Baby walker wheels as usual as well as PVC tubing
Gumsticks!

Please lets all build these devices and help someone navigate easier, no?
