The conceptual 'Caregiver' smart cane has been designed by Ma Tianyu as a connected mobility device for elderly persons to keep them supported with advanced capabilities. The cane is imagined with a built-in GPS tracker along with radar imaging cameras and even a series of accompanying bone conduction headphones. The headphones will keep the user informed of navigation cues, while also ensuring they can maintain awareness of their surroundings as they walk.
The conceptual 'Caregiver' smart cane requires charging to keep it functioning and has wireless charging functionality to further support ease of use on a daily basis. The cane has a telescopic construction to adjust according to the height of the user and also has a light on the front to keep the person visible in low light conditions.
