The National Trust are trialling the new Navi Lens technology at Saltram in Plymouth, a digital navigation aid designed for partially sighted visitors.
The test will run until 25 October and The technology is already in use on transport systems across Spain and parts of the USA and UK.
NaviLens is a free app which can help give greater independence and freedom for users to navigate their way around places with less or even no aid.
