There are a large no of people around us who are disable or too old. Unfortunately, they face some accidents due to their weakness. Electronic Walking Stick is really a great invention and can save the lives of several people. It is a walking stick which blinks at night specially in dark places. So in this way while crossing a roads they are safe now:
The Electronic Walking Stick is a high powered LED walking stick designed to save lives. It has designed with safety as the main focus point.

I feel blessed when I meet a blind who needs anyone's help to cross the road safely. I always obliged to help them out. But now in the modern era, technology grows rapidly so they have got an opportunity to walk on the road safely. This would be a great option while walking at night.

I like the idea but honestly $185 USD for a stick with some LED‘s? No wonder they pretty much have no backers on their kickstarter campaign. As I said I like the idea and of course this has a good potential to really save lifes but with that price you can easily see the intentions of the producer (making money no matter what). If you are conserned about your elders just buy them a LED strip and tape it to their walking stick an show them how to put it on (about $10 USD on Amazon) and they can still use their favorite walking stick.
Hmmm, nice innovation even though I see no reason why physically challenged individuals should be crawling at night
Nice additional safety feature. However, i dont think a lot of people are speeding on city roads at night that they won't see someone crossing the road on lit road. Disabled/elderly people also will not be walking on dark alleys late at night. I don't know the stats that back this product. May be that can establish the usefulness of this stick. Also £145 is just too expensive for a walking stick. I can buy an ordinary stick and fix an led strip on it.
Come on, people!? Only one comment referencing light sabers! You have to see the similarity - and what a great addition the buzz of the light-saber would have for the blind. No problems finding their walking stick again.
I do admire the intent behind the tech. The blind are very vulnerable at night, where even high-visibility clothing is often ignored by drivers. So, a walking stick with lights would make the blind more visible.
But I have to agree with @elleok on the price - it's way too high for what is being provided. And I'm sure that's why their Indiegogo campaign is not taking off.
For something you can easily re-create with a strip of LED lights, using the walking stick they've already got, it's a bit of a stretch to ask $185. Which is a pity, because I do like the idea behind it.
Good hunting.
Perfect!!! This is again something amazing product. Just my own experience: I was working as a driver before. Some old people who use to go to church at night going home they usually wearing dark clothes. When they cross the road it is almost impossible to see them sometimes. So yeah defenetly this product can save lifes of many people. Big big like for the developers and for the hunt! Thank!
WOW, finally something for the elderly pedestrians! If we take a look at the accidents that happen on the roads just because of the fact that the drives fail to see the pedestrian on the road, we will be in shock. The number is way more up in the third world countries. Such a cool electronic sticks can help avoid the accidents. Perfect hunt @faiqablogs.
Great hunt friend
The Electronic stick is very useful for the old people while crossing the road at night time because it can be seen from half a mile and the Drivers will take care. Secondly It will give a firm support to old people so they can walk easily,
@faiqablogs
Such a great help for disable people. Because think situation about old or disable when they cross the road or walk , they feel very difficulty especially in the rush or road. Electronic Stick is really help them during their walk or cross the road. Amazing hunt and i appreciate your hunt and i hope your hunt will topper hunt.
I totally agree with you.
