All of the guide dog schools teach blind people to scoop up the poop From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Sieghard Weitzel Sent: Wednesday, May 26, 2021 1:09 PM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: RE: Could a smart backpack replace guide dogs?

CAUTION: This is an External email. Please send suspicious emails to ab...@michigan.gov<mailto:ab...@michigan.gov> And there is absolutely no reason why a guide dog user shouldn't have to clean up after their dog.

Researchers think so. - The Washington Post Yeah but then another blind person will probably come and walk over it which is disgusting!!! In my area there's lots of dog poo around on the street and you always feel extra apprehensive in case you step in it. Other people just go around or over it but of course blind people have no choice but to go through it if they are walking alone.

Researchers think so. - The Washington Post Importance: High exactly, yet another point in the robot's favour. although here in the UK, I believe guide dog users are exempt from having to clear it up. I know they used to be anyway, but not sure if that is still the case now. and yet another point, is that the robot one should take you to exactly where you want to go, even if you have no idea of how to get there, and no sense of direction, where as that would probably be a heck of a lot to ask from the standard guide dog.

Researchers think so. - The Washington Post Importance: High possibly, but unlike the real dog, one won't have to be so concerned about it getting too distracted by such attention, and the robot one could very easily even be programmed to say something along the lines of, "buzz off, I'm trying to do a job here, and you are not helping" Simon ----- Original Message ----- From: CJ & AA MAY<mailto:chrisalis...@gmail.com> To: viphone@googlegroups.com<mailto:viphone@googlegroups.com> Sent: Tuesday, May 25, 2021 9:51 PM Subject: RE: Could a smart backpack replace guide dogs? Researchers think so. - The Washington Post By nature, people are curious. Anything different will attract their attention. Rightly or wrongly, one of the things I like about being a guide dog owner is that I feel the attention tends to go to the dog rather than me. A robot guide dog is likely to draw just as much attention. Alison -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.
