Developed by UK-based WeWALK and backed by internationally recognised innovation awards, the Smart Cane 2 layers AI-powered technology onto the familiar long cane rather than replacing it — acknowledging that the white cane remains a trusted and culturally significant mobility tool for many blind users.
Ultrasonic sensors built into the cane handle detect obstacles at chest and head height that a standard cane sweep cannot reach, sending vibration alerts to warn the user before contact. The WeWALK companion app (iOS and Android) provides GPS-based turn-by-turn navigation, nearby transit information, and points of interest announced through the cane's built-in speaker. Voice commands and a touchpad on the handle allow fully hands-free control.
Blind and low-vision white-cane users who want GPS navigation, above-ground obstacle detection, and voice assistance integrated into their existing mobility tool without carrying or managing a separate device.
The Urban Xplorer is a lightweight, adjustable folding white cane made from aerospace aluminium, designed for blind and low-vision users navigating city environments. It comes in four sizes (Small through X-Large) and features a redesigned dome tip, hardened aluminium joints, and a foam grip. The cane is built to handle common urban obstacles such as cobblestones, sewer grates, and uneven sidewalks.
Awarewolf
TAMI is a wearable assistive device designed for blind and vision-impaired users that integrates obstacle detection technology into a modern glasses frame. It uses haptic vibrations to alert wearers to upper-body-level obstacles that a white cane cannot detect. The device aims to increase independent mobility and confidence during travel.
Lighthouse Tech
The Awarewolf All Terrain Cane is a titanium folding mobility cane designed for blind and low-vision hikers navigating rugged outdoor terrain. It features an adjustable foam grip handle, a rolling ball tip, and a reinforced stainless-steel folding joint capable of bearing the user's weight. The cane retains the familiar form factor of a traditional red-and-white mobility cane while providing enhanced stability on uneven ground.
