Why “E-Stick” Smart Cane?

E-Stick is used to help the visually challenged people to move independently from one place to another even in unfamiliar places. As E-Stick makes visually challenged people more independent, it is certainly an aid that helps not only in navigation but also in boosting up their morale.

E-Stick aims at providing obstacle free navigation for visually challenged people by alerting them with a beep whenever there is an obstacle above knee height

FEATURES

SIMPLE TO USE

As the electronic unit is mounted over the traditional foldable cane, it gives a sense of familiarity to the user. So, the user need not take long hours of training to use it.

GOOD ERGONOMICS

The E-Stick is designed by taking all the requirements of the visually challenged people into consideration. The plastic casing does not protrude outside and the cane is foldable like a normal mobility cane. The Power ON/OFF switch is placed on the top right corner of the casing such that it does not get damaged even if the cane drops off the floor from a considerable height. The weight of the electronic unit is also very less such that the user does not feel uncomfortable carrying it

RE-CHARGEABLE

The E-Stick is provided with a re-chargeable battery unit so that the user need not replace the battery whenever the batter is exhausted. As the end user is a visually challenged person this would be very helpful for him.

LONG BATTERY LIFE

As the circuit consumes very little current the battery lasts for a long time.

OBSTACLE DETECTION ABOVE KNEE HEIGHT

The E-Stick is designed to detect obstacles above the height of the knee of user within a range of 3-5ft.

LOW COST

The E-Stick comes for an affordable price for an average Indian user.

DESIGNED WITH CARE

E-Stick is a simple easy to use electronic travel aid for the visually challenged people. It uses a snapfit casing which holds all the electronic circuitry and the battery. The bottom end of the casing is connected to the foldable/rigid cane. The obstacle identification sensor is placed in the front part of the casing. The E-stick can detect obstacles which are at a distance of 1m above the knee height of the user and alerts the user through a beep sound. The main advantage of this product is that it provides additional features to the regular white mobility cane that the visually challenged persons are currently using. Making the user more independent, the E-Stick has edge over the white mobility cane. So, it is easy to get trained with this product.
