Everyone faces challenges in their life, but some are more important than others. Daniel Kish had serious problems with his eyes when he was born. And doctors took away both of his eyes before he was fourteen months old.
Soon after, however, he started to do an amazing thing. He started to make clicking(咔嗒) sounds with his tongue(舌头) to help him move around. Much like a bat (蝙蝠), he now moves about using sonar(声呐). He is so good at it that he can ride a bicycle in traffic. He and his group, World Access for the Blind, teach others how to use sonar. In this interview with National Geographic, Kish explains how the process works.
How does sonar work?
“When I make a clicking sound, it makes sound waves. These waves reflect(反射) off surfaces all around and return to my ears. My brain then processes the sounds into images(图像). It's like having a conversation with the environment.”
When you click, what do you see in your mind?
“Each click is like a camera flash. I make a 3D image of the things around me for hundreds of feet in every direction.”
What is it like riding a bike using sonar?
“It's exciting and enjoyable but requires a lot of focus. I click up to two times per second, much more than I usually do.”
Is it dangerous to move around the world in this way?
“Much of the world lives in fear of things that we mostly imagine. I have a habit of climbing anything and everything, but I never broke a bone as a kid.”
How challenging is it to teach people to use sonar?
“Many students are surprised how quickly results come. Seeing isn't in the eyes; it's in the mind.”
