Abstract
This study assessed the possibility of guiding a person with blindness and intellectual disability during indoor travel with fewer auditory cues. To improve the chances of success, the orientation system used to present the cues was set to monitor the person's travel and to provide extra cues in case of errors. The results indicated that infrequent presentations of the cues and the provision of extra cues in case of errors maintained high levels of independent moves, albeit of increased duration.
