On April 8, 2024, a total solar eclipse swept across North America. This rare event occurs when the moon passes between the Earth and the sun, casting a shadow on our planet and temporarily obscuring the sun's light. For many, this is a special event to witness firsthand. However, for those who are blind or have low vision, experiencing the eclipse poses unique challenges - traditional methods of observing eclipses through sight alone aren't feasible.
Now, innovative technologies, like those listed below, are changing that narrative, ensuring that events such as this are more inclusive. This article explores how one device and a couple of apps can enhance how individuals with visual impairments engage with solar eclipses.
