Arıkovanı, which brings innovative products to users, has launched another noteworthy project. The WeWalk, touted as the world's first smart cane, aims to make life easier for the visually impaired.
WeWALK, a smart cane designed for the visually impaired, stands out with its obstacle recognition feature, which easily detects obstacles such as signs, poles, and tree branches at chest and head height; its ability to connect to a mobile phone via Bluetooth, simulating the phone screen and allowing control of the phone; and its open platform features that enable integration with all mobile applications.
WeWALK incorporates many high-tech components. For extended use, a powerful rechargeable battery is permanently integrated into the device. You can charge the device using the USB port. When not connected to a phone, it has software that can operate via its microprocessor. Once connected to a phone via Bluetooth, the touchpad, vibration motors, ultrasonic sensor, compass, and LEDs can be controlled and accessed remotely.
The first application integrated into WeWALK was Hayal Ortağım, a collaboration between YGA and Turkcell that has made life easier for 200,000 people with disabilities. Thanks to Hayal Ortağım's Yol Arkadaşım technology, WeWALK will accompany visually impaired individuals to the stores they wish to visit in shopping malls.
