A tactile or haptic guidance device incorporates a LIDAR assembly and servo motor assembly or linear actuators to provide tactile feedback to the user. The LIDAR assembly determines obstacles in the path of the user and the micro-controller uses the LIDAR data to send a signal to the servo motor assembly or linear actuators, which will cause translational or rotational movement along one or more axes with appropriate amounts of force to provide tactile feedback to the user about objects in their path.
