A sensor web is a garment of finely woven sonar units, typically utilized by the blind during the 23rd century to help carry out normal lives. The web can be worn naturally over everyday clothing. It emits low level sonar scans undetectable to the human senses, and translates return signals into media perceptable by the trained wearer. The blind Dr. Miranda Jones stated to Captain James T. Kirk that she could "play tennis" with him while wearing the web. (TOS: "Is There in Truth No Beauty?") The device was similar to the 24th century VISOR.
