One such device is the rope tether. This tool allows visually impaired runners to maintain a connection with their sighted guides, ensuring they stay on course and move together as a team.

Acoustic devices are another important aid for visually impaired athletes. These devices emit sounds that indicate the location of throwing targets, helping athletes to aim accurately.
