Guide Dogs

As part of our work on the senses we have been researching all about the role of guide dogs and how they help people who are visually impaired. We watched a video of a guide dog navigating a busy city centre and discussed how the dog can avoid obstacles and help guide their human to where they need to go safety. We then looked at a map of a town and assessed where the obstacles are and which route is the easiest for the dog to follow. We then programmed our Blu Bots to act like the guide dog completing a course avoiding all the obstacles we put in its path. Lastly, we went on a blindfolded walk to show how difficult it is to get around when you cannot use your eyes, our friends helped guide dog using their voices so we could get from one point in the hall to another.
