One of my aims, should I ever get up the money for an Iphone 3GS, is to write apps that use the built-in compass and GPS locator and WIFI to scavenge data and provide constant heading feedback for blind walkers. This might have to be done using 3D sound, meaning a headset, so I don't know how it'll interfere with hearing traffic and ambient environment noises, but I know that, without my dog to straighten me out, I feer wildly, and not always in the same direction each time... This is because I'm ambidextrous. I'll check out this article and related posts very soon, as this area really interests me and I think there are enormous applications here for getting blind people out of their boxes and into the real world.
