Navigating a city, particularly the unfamiliar parts, can be difficult for those with visual impairments. The Autour app, supported by Community Investment Program funding, will be made available for use in major cities across Canada. This project will enrich the awareness of the visually impaired community of places around them and services available. In turn, individual users will gain greater autonomy and confidence in exploring their environment, whether in familiar areas or previously unvisited parts of their cities.
