    Abstract:
    A system causing no environmental disturbance was employed for helping a woman with blindness and intellectual disability travel in indoor areas. The system provided encouragement and praise while the woman moved in the correct direction and a buzzer sound in the case of incorrect direction through earpieces. The results showed that the woman learned to use the system and traveled successfully.
