Did you know? Humans can actually use echolocation to detect objects in their environment by actively creating sounds. Daniel Kish is the first totally blind person to be a legally Certified Orientation and Mobility Specialist.

It showcases the remarkable ways people can adapt and thrive.

Echolocation, also called bio sonar, is a biological active sonar used by several animal groups, both in the air and underwater. Echolocating animals emit calls and listen to the echoes of those calls that return from various objects near them. They use these echoes to locate and identify the objects. Echolocation is used for navigation, foraging, and hunting prey. Echolocation calls can be frequency modulated (FM, varying in pitch during the call) or constant frequency (CF). FM offers precise range discrimination to localize the prey, at the cost of reduced operational range. CF allows both the prey's velocity and its movements to be detected by means of the Doppler effect. FM may be best for close, cluttered environments, while CF may be better in open environments or for hunting while perched. Echolocating animals include mammals, especially odontocetes (toothed whales) and some bat species, and, using simpler forms, species in other groups such as shrews. A few bird species in two cave-dwelling bird groups echolocate, namely cave swiftlets and the oilbird. Some prey animals that are hunted by echolocating bats take active countermeasures to avoid capture. These include predator avoidance, attack deflection, and the use of ultrasonic clicks which have evolved multiple functions including aposematism, mimicry of chemically defended species, and echolocation jamming. pic : A depiction of the ultrasound signals emitted by a bat, and the echo from a nearby object

It’s crazy how people can completely adapt to their surroundings like this, to overcome a disability

Echolocation just like whales I believe though..

Impressive how adaptive is our brain!

Doesn’t sound real.

Echolocation is a technique used by bats, dolphins and other animals to determine the location of objects using reflected sound. This allows the animals to move around in pitch darkness, so they can navigate, hunt, identify friends and enemies, and avoid obstacles. It's a nice adaptation to humans
