A lightweight, low-cost enhanced obstacle detection system that attaches to a user’s white cane and appropriately alerts the user of obstacles in their path.
A thicker coated wiring to create a more substantial support structure. We chose to use a coated wire rather than 3D printing the frame due to the important functionality of masks.
The ideal solution for this problem is coming up with an idea that enables Max to use a remote with commands with the use of his head switch.
