Vibration belt leads the way

The auto-vibrating belt to produce a right turn, the left can accurately guide bike riders without distracting them from the road ahead.

As an invention of the University of Amsterdam (Netherlands), vibrating belts can say that GPS wears belts right away, guiding cyclists after they have finished loading data on their destination on a smartphone with GPS, Follow the NewScientist.com page.

The vibration action will be activated just before you have to redirect it.

A total of 20 volunteers participated in the experiment, forcing them to walk on unfamiliar roads, with a group only equipped with vibrating belts or GPS devices attached to the steering wheel.

While all of the crews came to their destination safely, the researchers discovered one difference: when asked about the points that had passed, the group was equipped with a vibrating belt that was aware of everything around it rather than just the group. Track the path on the GPS screen.

This is not the first time a vibrating device has been tested to guide the way. The US military is also deploying a similar system to guide the infantry to the target.
