Researchers at the University of Georgia have developed a prototype wearable AI system in the form of a voice-activated backpack that allows visually impaired people to navigate the world around them without a guide dog, according to Forbes. 
The ground-breaking system is embedded within a backpack and connected to several sensors in a vest. Audio notifications are relayed to the visually impaired wearer about the environment around them via a Bluetooth earpiece.
Jagadish K. Mahendran, a Computer Vision/Artificial Intelligence Engineer from the University of Georgia's Institute for Artificial Intelligence, is the revolutionary device's brainchild.
