Headband Gives Wearer "Sixth-Sense" 234

Posted by ScuttleMonkey on Wednesday September 19, 2007 @03:32PM from the use-the-force dept.

An anonymous reader writes "New Scientist reports on a headband developed at the University of Tokyo that allows the wearer to feel their surroundings at a distance — as if they had cats whiskers. Infrared sensors positioned around the headband vibrate to signal when and where an object is close. There are also a few great videos of people using it to dodge stuff while blindfolded."
