Jodhpur is famous for its handicrafts; these include bed covers, bed sheets, jewellery with semiprecious stones and a number of carvings. My family was keen to have bedcovers from Jodhpur. In my entire 32 years on the planet, I had never ever before bot a
bed cover. The first challenge was color. My mom knew that she wanted beige but there was no way for me to check except use the services of my ever helpful cited colleague. The second thing she wanted was a bed cover with small print. Now this was something more along my line. I was able to use the vOICe to gauge the print of the bed cover. The process is really simple. I took my mobile phone and moved it over the sample I was examining. It was easy to pick up the different designs and the print as a cluster of high-pitched beeps in the view.

In addition, it was also possible to determine the overall shape of the design thanks to the panning. Mind you, I was not using headphones at that time.

Needless to say, I attracted a significant degree of attention but the shopkeepers were not asking me any questions directly. They were more comfortable asking my cited colleague. I did not have the time or inclination to try and alter that thought pattern. I was too busy being a customer and trying to buy the right item.

The story has a happy ending since I bought three bedcovers from the shop and they have been well received at home.
