 I walked up to Manchubalani and asked her, hey, what's new in Canes for accessibility? And she has a product here. First tell me the name of the organization you're with. So we are working with Assistec Labs, Indian Institute of Technology, Delhi. Oh, okay, great. So she's got it. This is for audio and video. So she's got a cane here that looks fairly normal, but it's got a little block on it that's about three inches long and maybe an inch and a half wide. It looks like it's got two little screens, two sensors. So tell us what this does. So this is basically the smart cane and it is a normal device which is mounted on your normal white cane and it gives vibrational feedback for the obstructions that come into your way. And this is basically used for detecting obstructions which are above the knee level. So when you move towards an object or any obstruction, the vibration pattern basically starts to increase. And if there is a path which is clearer of you, so the vibrations will tend to slow down. So the tip of your cane is just for something you're actually about to hit, but that's down at ground level. But that doesn't help you from branch hanging down or something like that? Yeah, so this is basically for anything which comes till head height. Windows, branches, ACs, air conditioning systems, anything like that. All the things I run into and I have sight. So did you say this can attach to any cane? Any cane with this kind of thickness. So because this is basically removable, this device. So any... Okay, she just unclipped it. Oh wow. Any cane which fits basically into this can be connected to it. Okay, and our cane is fairly standardized? Yeah, it is. So like one can get it fitted with the Ambutek cane itself. Okay, okay, great. It is just that we need to customize it because Ambutek can have the elastic on the top rather than on the side. So that is one small customization which can be done. Okay, great. So can I play with it? Yeah, sure. All right, so I've got this cane in my hand and I'm feeling a little bit of vibration. Now it's stopped. So let's see, he wants me... I'm walking towards Steve and he's got his hand out and right now I can feel that his hand is there and I am a good three feet away from him. As I go... Oh, as I go towards him, it's going de-de-de-de-de-de-de. If I back up, de-de-de-de-de. So I'm able to feel his hand that's up at almost my shoulder level and it's going faster and faster. Wow, that is amazing. That would be a huge advantage, I would think. And it has basically two modes. So right now it's in the outdoor mode. Actually, it should be in the indoor mode since we are in an indoor kind of setup. So indoor mode has a range of 1.5 meters and if you go to the outdoor mode, it will detect obstructions up to 3 meters. Oh, okay, because there's a lot of stuff indoors that be going off all the time. So actually, if you put it in the indoor mode, we're going to try it again. Okay, so it's not beeping too much, now it's beeping a bunch. Yeah, yeah, that makes more sense. Yeah, if you had it on the outdoor mode, it would be going off all the time while you are indoors. So what is this product called? Smart cane. Smart cane and it attaches to any cane and that fits that mold and how much is it? For an individual purchase, it will be somewhere around $1.90. $90. $90? Yeah. That's not much at all for assistive technology. That's close to zero. Yeah, so we are basically working towards affordable assistive technologies for the blind and visually impaired. That is the motto of the lab. Oh, that's great. So this is not available yet? No, the people can order this. So they can basically contact us, they can visit the ASSISTEC website, contact us and you can order the cane. Okay, and what is that website? Contact ASSISTECH.com. Perfect. Well, thank you very much. This is really, really interesting. I like it. Thank you.
