Discover what it’s really like to use Glide by Glidance, the innovative AI mobility device for blind and visually impaired travellers. Scott and Michelle share hands-on experiences, first impressions, and why this “third category” tool could change independent travel. In this lively episode of Double Tap, Steven Scott and Shaun Preece dive into the real-world experiences of early Glide users. Scott and Michelle, initially sceptical of the device, reveal how the AI-driven mobility aid performed during their trials. The conversation explores: How Glide functions as a middle ground between a white cane and a guide dog. The confidence and limitations users felt during navigation tests. Why initial scepticism can shift after hands-on experience. The growing excitement for Glide as it moves closer to public release. Alongside the main topic, Steven and Shaun share humorous personal stories, from Uber Pet mishaps to kitchen experiments gone wrong, bringing their signature blend of tech insight and light-hearted banter.
