GARRS MAY, 2008, PROGRAM GUIDE
**Program reminder: “Eye on Blindness” airs at 2 p.m. on Wednesday,
May 28th, and repeats at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday, May 31st. This
month’s program focuses on the development and testing of GPS
devices for the blind and visually-impaired taking place at the
Veterans Administration Medical Center in Atlanta. Vincent Martin,
health research scientist, will discuss how these adaptive devices
(similar in size to cell phones) will make it easier and safer for
people who are blind to maneuver inside unfamiliar buildings, office
spaces, and eventually outside locations including streets. Our host
is Dick Edwards.

version of “Cover-to-Cover” (produced by Georgia Public
Broadcasting) will air Sundays at 8 p.m. followed by our new
