In the current context, technology is both - a friend and enemy to humans. While there are various other groups and hackers innovating on a bad note there still exists ethical hackers and startupreneurs who are doing a great deal for the ones left out in the society. Recently, there was another massive innovation in technology aiding the differently abled. Ducere Technologies, a Secunderabad based startup created a shoe for the visually challenged; this shoe is specially designed as it gives out mild vibrations to guide the user.  The founders of this product, Anirudh Sharma and Krispian Lawrence, graduates from The University of Michigan also plans to add on more features to this unique and special shoe.

On the other hand, if you ever thought that smartphones were only meant for the healthy clan then you are mistaken. India, is the first ever country to build a complete smartphone for the visually challenged. The phone was developed by Sumit Dagar who claims that the phone meets all the parameters to call it a smartphone. It lets the visually challenged to read mails, SMSes and above all becomes a very good companion.
