Anirudh Sharma, an HP Labs India researcher, was named Indian Innovator of the Year for 2012 in the under 35 category, by MIT Technology Review magazine. Sharma received the award for a wearable, GPS-based, digital-sensor navigation solution he developed for visually-impaired people.Anirudh-Sharma_web.jpg



Sharma named his solution Le Chal, which means “take me there” in Hindi. The Le Chal navigation solution features haptic adapters (tactile feedback technology) and circuit boards, both of which are embedded in a visually impaired person’s shoes. The haptic actuators are embedded in the toe section of a shoe and serve as a sensor, detecting obstacles in front of and to the side of the person wearing the solution. The actuators communicate this information to the solution’s circuit board, which is embedded in the heal of the shoe and determines the person’s location using GPS data.



When a person wearing shoes equipped with Le Chal wants to walk somewhere, he or she simply speaks a destination to an Android application, which wirelessly communicates the destination’s GPS data to the solution’s circuit board. The solution then uses vibrations in the shoe to provide walking directions to the user. A vibration on the left side of the shoe tells the user to turn left; a vibration on the right signals a turn to the right. The strength of the vibrations increase as the user nears his or her destination. Through a continuous process of sensing obstacles around users and determining their location, the Le Chal solution provides the users step-by-step directions to their destination.



Sharma has been a researcher at HP Labs India since 2009 and is currently working on the Intuitive Multimodal and Gestural Interaction project. Sharma is exploring ways in which he can make the Le Chal navigation solution commercially available to visually impaired people.
