Pathfinder 'Patent Pending'
QEP's 'Pathfinder' tile is used to guide the visually impaired across our streets safely giving possitive demarkation from one side of teh road to the other. Pathfinder has also been successfully used in blind manufacturing facilities to aid the visually impaired to give them positive demarcation of safe transit route to their work stations and aids navigation around the manufacturing facility.Please see specification from here.
QEP Corporation has developed an effective guidance system typically installed at intersections, and other areas where vehicular traffic crosses the path of pedestrian traffic. It is also being used by blind manufacturing facilities here in America. Pathfinder gives a visible and tactile detectable demarcation of safe transit routes. The blind and partially sighted can navigate safely along designated routes avoiding potential hazards. Pathfinder is also a vital aide in safe and effective evacuation in an emergency situation.
The Pathfinder tile with a third glo rib aids evacuation for both sighted and partially sighted people in a blackout situation. The trypical uses of the Glo-Pathfinder would include airports, shopping mals and other commercial properties.
