IO is very light, ergonomic and particularly visible by day and night. Innovative functions make it a reliable companion.
A tactile cane, folding cane, white long cane or colloquially blind cane helps to be able to move safely and self-determined. In road traffic, it is internationally recognised as an official protection and recognition sign and is also aimed at all sighted road users.
light
The advantages of carbon can be felt right in the palm of the hand: IO is stable, sensitive to touch and very light.
ergonomic
The curved handle follows the natural hand position. It offers a variety of grip positions and thus relieves the wrist. IO can be guided in the pendulum grip (stair technique) by placing the thumb in the recess at the lower end of the grip.
visible
IO combines a reflective film for nighttime visibility with a neon yellow film for daytime visibility and twilight
intelligent
The patented IO joint is shaped to give way in a controlled manner in the event of a collision with obstacles in all directions, thus protecting against damage.
three-part
IO can be opened and closed quietly and in a controlled manner, even in the tightest of spaces.
compatible
IO has a standard M8 thread for easy mounting of the GEO rolling tip – as well as all commercially available rolling tips.
For left- and right-handers IO is available in the known standard lengths (cm): 107, 112, 117, 122, 127, 132, 137, 142, 147, 152, 157. A combination with the suitably developed rolling tip GEO is particularly suitable.
