One of those "putting your life into perspective" talks. Funny guy, makes it so much easier to listen to. I can see many tools developed to make this easier for blind children to learn early on, like an addition to learning to walk.

Rhyle there is some interesting stuff being developed aside from the obvious recreating of the eye there are a couple cool tools on the market already for example a device that picks up the color of something you are looking at and then creating a sound specific to that color value do enable colorblind people. What i think will be interesting is what happens when we are able to give blind people visual sight and how that then functions when they have mastered sonar and how these 2 different ways of seeing the world interact.

It's not that our brain works differently, I think anyone could memorize something if they really wanted to. It's all about looking at it from a different perspective. I have been blind my whole life. I've never been able to see anyone, and yet I know what the people in my life look like, even if I can't see them.

as someone who is blind and lost their sight at 12 I can tell you this guy is right. I'm meeting him in person next week. yes not being able to physically see is an issue to overcome. however it is easy to deal with sightloss than it is with perception. most blind people stop suffering that their sight is gone relatively quickly after the vision goes. the suffering continues because people think we can't do anything when we can. ignorance causes suffering, not blindness. don't ever underestimate the humanbodys ability to adapt and survive in the face of adversity. it's exactly that which makes us the dominant animalon the planet

I am hearing impaired in my left ear due to my eardrum puncturing when I was young. (however, I was born with hypersensitive hearing, so it isn't very bad.) but I have insanely good hearing in my right ear, I can hear the whirs of old TV's and florescent lights (yes they make a sound) And I have trained myself to use a rudimentary form of echolocation to detect where obstacles or walls/ceilings are with my eyes closed. It is handy when it is midnight and all the lights are off and you need a glass of water.

It can all be skipped. Blindfolded children quickly learn to see with their third eye. And it's in COLOR. So not about echolocation. The blind and the old can also learn. It's a matter of what we allow ourselves to achieve, the mind is the limitation. Just look up the videos of blindfolded children and adults. Able to see. Not tricked.

I have developed that skill somewhat. Hella useful. when i was 5-7 my neighbor was blind and he had many tricks. I would hang with him all the time and help him and he really changed my young life. Ernst Vorpagal was his name in Grafton, WI. He had lost his left eye completely, and his right was totally ruined. Happened when he was 19 in the military. They were wonderful people and he and I would listen to audiobooks and he would always make his wife blindfold me so I could see different. My first rational memories are in his apartment.

For all of you thinking this sounds "sketchy," do me a favor. Rap on a couple of different objects with different densities as your eyes are closed. These objects could be the back of your phone and the table in front of you. Now, think really hard about those sounds, taste the differences between them, and from these differences form visual amalgamations from all of the childlike blobs in the depths of your mind, all with your eyes still closed. That is how this man sees, and it actually seems like a lot of fun.

Yes. The only thing is, that these people are sharing their own subjective experiences. And, those aren't always reliably true for everyone else. An, "objective," education cannot be learned from absorbing subjective accounts. You will only ever learn what's been proven true to that one particular person. TED talks are great, but they are NO substitution for a basic, scientifically-based education. And, just being able to distinguish between the two is fundamentally critical. (Or critically fundamental lol either way.😂👍)

Lol I remember discovering this when i was s kid. I used to like to click my tongue when i was younger, and eventually realised my clicks sounded different when I was near an object. Years later, I realised I was echolocating. Im obviously not good at it like he is, but I can close my eyes and tell if im about to run into a wall, or how large a room is. You can sorta hear the emptiness of a large room, your click sounds softer.

@@johnrambo4603 No not at all. Not like him. Im sighted and havent had practice. There is also a blind spot when you get really close to a wall- the echo arrives at about the same time as the sound of the click does from your throat, so it sort of just sounds the same. I actually did some research into bats echolocating, and found that bats ears disconnect when they send out a chirp and reconnect a microsecond later. If my ears could do that it would be wayyy easier. That way im only hearing the echo itself, and not my own clicking. It also turns out that high pitched sounds allow you to hear more detail, so i tried sending out a whistle, but I couldnt get anything. Could be lack of practice.

The problem is that a visual system is very sensitive to changes and inactivity. I seem to recall a cruel 'experiment' on a kitten(s?) that was kept in the dark and even after the blindfold was lifted after some time, never learned to see. David Eagleman (who has a great TED talk himself) has a theory that we dream to keep our visual system going or it will be quite quickly taken over by the other brain systems.

That is a great Idea and it will develop to unimaginable depths once our ignorant scientists and medical researchers all come together and 100% support this and actually care. But more importantly, unfortunately as well, there has to be a huge profit ability for big medical companies and science to come together to develop something that can be put in their ears and will actually drastically distinguish different sounds, give feedback on how far they are, which direction, frequency, and help the blind develop a much clearer image of everything around them. But I don't see the profit margin for a business oriented society. Just not enough blind people able to pay for the research that takes 100's of millions in addition to developing the product so its affordable WITHOUT the state to pay for it all and the state does not care to have another expense of a very small minority. Prob the smallest one in relation to ethnic problems. So no money = no progress sadly and the bling will be left limited to a FUZZY image at best and with a long stick they can somewhat live a decent life. But they could drive cars, fly planes etc...just the necessary tools are needed. Too expensive and city wide sound reflectors would be needed as well so they would know where the stop signs are and exactly when it is about to turn red, speed limit, actual lane space, their speed, cars in front and behind that is almost solved) line deviation warning and automatic speed control lets a car stop and go again on its own based on the cars ahead of them and will shake the wheel if your car even leans on the line of the other lane next to you and will alarm if you come close to a car next to you. But all of that, in addition to their earpiece technology, can be made to make the blind live a pretty normal life like everyone else. Just the profit is not there and the cost is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy too high and has no return. Cruel business oriented society but its the truth...great idea though.

This won't work as good as using the mouth. The problem here is that you have to hear the sound when it is created. As early as possible. And i think that if you use your mouth to do it you even know that the sound WILL come before it actually does and you have much more feedback from all over your head. @F. Exprt You are delusional. Go take your conspirancy theorys somewhere else. ITs true that huge profit helps to establish proper science funding but even with out it they can get funding. This trhing we are talking about is not as easy as you think. The brain already does a GREAT job. The only next step would be to outsource that brainpower into a device and then send the correct visual information to the brain. Good luck in doing that. I think shinjiprofiles comment has the best short term solution. Better hearing will improve it.

Absolutely amazing. I wonder if he would benefit even more so by some sort of sophisticated device designed to emit specialized sounds designed for echo location. Maybe it could have a few different sounds, some for wider general broadcast and some for more focused. Like he could blast a room with the wide one to get a rough mental 3D map, then hit all the objects individually with the focused one to get more detail. I'm thinking if he worked with some engineers he could make something AMAZING. Maybe even something that any blind person could easily learn to use. Of course we would all have to get used to a bunch of people playing electric clicks everywhere they went, but I'm sure we would all be thrilled to see blind people with more mobility and confidence. If you are smart and you're reading this... can you please make it? I'm sure it will only take a decade or so. :)

You make patterns in the brain when after training, whatever you do. After a while, you just know that the ceiling above you is 10 feet high or that there's a some sort of car in front of you because of how the sound reflects of the car's metal surface. It is like this: How do you know how fast a car heading towards you is going by looking at it for less than a second? It is because you've trained your brain (sort of simply by growing up in a "kinda" normal environment) to calculate speeds by seeing with your two eyes. Eventually it ia completely hardwires into you and that is how reflexes work. Once you learn to bike you never forget, sort of.

His final words during the presentation, after he was questioned about his inner world, reminded me of The Last of Us. Not because of the Clickers, but because of the X-Ray-like vision/hearing you have to navigate in the game and avoid enemies.

As a person who is partially sighted and uses contact lenses and glasses in order to see, I would like to meet him some day and learn more from him. I understand exactly how he feels when he talks about people being afraid. That has happened so many times with me, and it has made me very stifled. I would like to study more about sonar from now on.

So I haven't done what Daniel does and I'm sighted but for many years I have walked around my apartments at night effectively blind and realized a long time ago that I could hear where walls were. Of course things on the floor and tables, etc are an issue but at least I don't run into the walls by accident. I've found that there's always ambient noise and that I could hear the shift when I approach walls.

I feel all of us have this skill but not to the degree of him, I mean whole listening to this I made my bed, and I can hear where my phone was, I had also went under my desk but knew it was above it, I guess that’s when he meant by seeing around corners, and objects.

I gather that the amplified sound in the venue made it a little too "bright" in the room for him to see well. Blinding-sound for him, blinding-light for the sighted. I, unfortunately, have a rather tough case of tinnitus. I wonder if that would render me blind in the echolocation world?

would it be possible to create a sonar headset for blind people that constantly emits sound at a frequency above human hearing range (so as not to get irritating to bystanders) shift the frequency down to make it audible to help these people see?

Does this mean humans can "see" Sound? Frequencies? Vibrations? Using high pitch clicks to bounce off objects around us, painting pictures of surfaces, edges, ridges, anything sound can interact with? I heard we do the same to see? Our eyes interact with our surrounding somehow ? Is our brain more capable then we think. I'm starting to question :/ so much right now
