The electronic device includes a sensing unit, a machine vision unit, and a path planning unit. The machine vision unit is connected to the sensing unit and is configured to detect one or more obstacles in a vicinity of the user. The path planning unit is capable of developing a movement route for the user to avoid the one or more obstacles. The haptic unit includes a haptic arrangement having a plurality of haptic actuators adapted to provide a tactile stimulation to the torso or limbs of the user. The plurality of haptic actuators actuate based on the movement commands from the path planning unit to signify a travel direction in which there is no obstacle.",
