Projects

This project is part of my ongoing effort to redesign mobility aids to be more empowering, intuitive, and socially inclusive.

I explored how users interact with traditional canes and walkers, and developed prototypes for a smart cane equipped with sensors for obstacle detection, wireless connectivity, and emergency alerts. The design is influenced by real-world feedback from users, including stroke survivors and older adults.

My Role

• Talking to USERS!!
• Concept design & ideation
• User interviews & need-finding
• Prototyping (CAD, sketches, poster design)
• HCI & accessibility research

Tools

• Figma, Blender, Python, OpenCV (for future vision-based features)

This project combines human-centered design with emerging tech to imagine what mobility aids can be.
