Executive Summary THE GLIDER (FV) is a privacy-first wearable navigation system that enables blind and visually impaired people to move through physical space with greater safety, independence, and confidence. Unlike existing assistive tools, THE GLIDER (FV): ● builds a real-time spatial perception layer around the user ● delivers intuitive haptic guidance instead of cognitive-heavy instructions ● operates under a zero-trust, encrypted architecture ● is designed to scale as a platform, not a single device Thesis: Mobility is the missing layer in accessibility. THE GLIDER (FV) turns spatial awareness into a product.
