Inicial Design Ideas – pt 3
3 Cane Concepts 1. Idea Cane Retractable design: In addition to size adjustability, the cane can fold for easy transportation. Obstacle Sensors and Vibration Alerts: Equip the cane with sensors to detect obstacles and emit a vibration or sound alert, warning the user of nearby dangers. Integrated Lighting: A small built-in LED light at the bottom of the cane to illuminate the path ahead, making it easier to walk in low-light areas. Incline Indicator: Warns the user about dangerous inclines in the terrain, helping to prevent falls when walking on uneven ground. Integrated Voice Assistant: Similar to Alexa or Google Assistant, the assistant can answer simple questions, remind users of appointments, and even remind them about medication, making the experience more user-friendly. Solar Charging or Long-Lasting Battery: A solar charging system or a long-lasting battery so that users don’t need to worry about frequent charging. 2.
