- The WeWALK Smart Cane consists of the Ambutech white cane with the smart handle and phone app. This provides many benefits, for example the cane vibrates when it detects objects above chest level and that gives you information about your surroundings, including public transport, via its touchpad. Works with iOS and Android smartphones (Android v5.0 or higher and iOS 10 or higher). Connects via Bluetooth.
- Increases independence via gyroscope, accelerometer, compass, directional vibration motors, microprocessor, touchpad, speaker, Bluetooth Low Energy module. Uses an ultrasonic sensor to detect obstacles above chest level, and vibrates when these objects are near, plus gives you the ground feedback of your long cane. You can set obstacle detection distance to suit you (2.6 to 5.2ft), and change other cane settings, including audio feedback volume.
- Lets you keep one hand free and leave your smartphone in your pocket. Use its touchpad for quick smartphone control. Navigation feature lets you use clock directions, destination tracking, and low-vision mapping. Discover new places with automatic voice feedback as you walk past them, or get a full list of nearby shops, restaurants, etc. Low Vision Interface for maximum accessibility: change text size, color, and background across the whole app, from the home screen to the low vision maps.
- You can find your cane using your phone and vice versa by playing a sound on each. You can use the built-in touchpad to set the obstacle detection distance and change cane settings such as the sound level. To recharge your WeWALK, plug the supplied cable into the cane and the USB-A end into a USB port or USB power adapter (not included). WeWALK charges in 2 to 3 hours, runs for 20 hours (battery life can be longer as the built-in sleep function conserves energy).
