The 21st Century Smart Cane For Blind And Partially Sighted People.
Season 1, Episode 641, Jan 19, 2021, 10:00 AM
The white cane has been around for a very long time and still helps those with a visual impairment navigate their environment, increasing independent mobility.
However, we are now in the 21st Century and a new company has taken the cane and given it an accessible tech upgrade, along with an app which is packed with orientation and mobility aids.
RNIB Connect Radio's Allan Russell spoke to Jean Marc Feghali, Head of Research and Development at We Walk, to learn more about the cane, the app and what makes it stand out from other devices.
