1. A wearable navigation system, comprising:
a central processing unit (CPU) coupled to a sensor package, the sensor package attached at a first mounting surface of one or more mounting surfaces, the sensor package comprising one or more distance sensors and an inertial measurement unit, wherein:
the distance sensors are configured to determine the distance between an object and the one or more distance sensors based on signals received from an environment;
the inertial measurement unit is configured to determine a position, speed, and acceleration of the wearable navigation system; and
the CPU is configured to determine information associated with the object with respect to the wearable navigation system; and
an actuator system coupled to the sensor package and a second mounting surface, the actuator system configured to generate feedback signals in response to information associated with the object received from the CPU;
wherein the actuator system comprises one or more actuators attachable at a plurality of levels, the actuator system being configured to provide feedback at one or more of the plurality of levels based on a height of the object.
