New technology has allowed a visually impaired man to run a half marathon without a human guide - and it could offer freedom and independence to millions of others around the world. Swedish former Paralympian Fatmir Seremeti tells us crossing the finish line on his own made him feel as if his disability was no longer an issue and he was just one of the thousands of runners at the event in Stockholm. He hopes the AI technology will improve to allow visually impaired people to do a wide range of activities independently, and says it could be a game changer for accessibility.
