IO is a white cane (blind cane) for people with visual impairment. It helps to achieve visibility, orientation and mobility in the private and public environment. IO consists of three parts: a handle and two stick segments. The handle is ergonomically shaped according to the natural hand position. IO can be folded in a controlled manner by folding down the handle and then folding down the lower stick segment. When folded, the White Cane is magnetically locked in place. The lower two segments are connected by the IO joint, which temporarily yields under impact loads from all directions. For daytime visibility and twilight visibility, IO is equipped with a neon yellow film and for nighttime visibility with a reflective film. GEO rolling tips can be easily mounted at the lower end – as well as all commercially available rolling tips with M8 thread.
