Teaching the blind to navigate the world using tongue clicks: Daniel Kish at TEDxGateway 2012

About Daniel:
Daniel Kish is an American expert in human echolocation and President of World Access for the Blind, a non-profit founded in 2000 to facilitate "the self-directed achievement of people with all forms of blindness" and increase public awareness about their strengths and capabilities. Kish and his organization have taught echolocation to at least 500 blind children around the world. Kish, who has been blind since he was 13 months old, is the first totally blind person to be a legally Certified Orientation and Mobility Specialist (COMS) and to hold a National Blindness Professional Certification (NOMC). He also holds masters degrees in developmental psychology and special education.
About his TEDxGateway talk:
Daniel shares his life story, his journey behind spreading the echolocation concept, and his message to the blind community across the world that nothing is impossible and seeing the world could only a matter of few tongue clicks away.

    Everyone should use it. My husband says I use echolocation even when I sleep - then again, when youʻve got a visually impaired lady with a blind cat (who talks a lot and uses echolocation), and a colorblind husband... what to expect? The other cat, with the normal eyes, gives probably stinkeyes to her odd family... :) Normal people donʻt see when itʻs dark or when thereʻs absolutely no light. So learn to see beyond the limits of your eyes. I run, usually with my eyes closed, or with just one eye open a tiny bit (because my eyes hurt and are extremely light sensitive, to both natural and artificial lights), I know where to turn, where to run, where the dangerous areas for running are. Running feels amazing - especially when you also break your own limits, and exercize the eyes/brain/fears. Echolocation is so briliant - just start using it. Walk a bit, run a bit... when you have your own comfort areas to run, whatʻs stopping you? Why do so many people always switch on the lights when they go in their own bathroom? Canʻt you shower or pee without the lights? Canʻt you make a coffee in the dark in your own home?

    My husband has done this for years. He is a successful piano technician and also sells used pianos. The only negative comments I've heard about this method from other blind people is the fact that 'clicking' draws attention to the blind person. He is not behaving naturally and the clicking gets on others' nerves. My husband pretty much only does it when he is on his own. He also rode a bike in a narrow alley way, having put a paper against the spokes, secured by a clothespin. I guess if it improves someone's life, then let it be. I just wonder why not an echo originating from some device that only the blind person can hear? N on one can take away Daniel's success, whatever they think about the peculiarity. There have been others no KZread as well. This is not new, but not everyone has had the fortitude to resist opposition.

    Carol Wigent that should be simple enough and maybe it would provide better resolution than tongue-clicks. You just need an ultrasound emitter, and a pair of microphones and earphones. You can cut all frequencies not in the emitter range and then bring them down to something audible. The only problem is that the earphones must be designed in a way that still allow you to properly listen to your surroundings.

    This is absolutely fascinating, and it's wild to me that we don't teach and support every blind person to use their other senses in this way and create their own freedom of movement. We as a society seem to care more about maintaining a static ideal of "normal" than we do about appreciating the breadth of varied human experience. "Disability" is truly an invention of society. E.g. nearsighted people aren't considered disabled bc they can access glasses in most cases, but blind people are supposed to just accept complete dependence on others for their entire lives bc society doesn't even present them with an alternative in most cases. I believe research into teaching the brain new senses via different types of stimulation may be extremely transformative. Can't wait until it's not unusual to have wear-able gadgets that give people a sense of magnetic north or a wider frequency band of light.

    I think it's still an interesting question. If someone with a damaged visual cortex attempted to learn echolocation maybe a different part of the brain would makeup for what's damaged, or perhaps it really depends on how the visual cortex is damaged.

    It's not, blind echolocation is real, I know someone who is totally blind and can tell you the shape of a room just by clicking at it. I can't actively echolocate yet, but I can 'see' things like walls by the way ambient sound bounces of them, and tell the kind of space I am in by making a sharp tapping sound with my white cane and listening to the reflected sound
