Features of the Lasercane

Overview
The lasercane is a lightweight adjustable walking stick with a laser cueing system specifically designed for individuals with gait freezing or gait ignition failure such as occurs in Parkinson’s Disease and other Parkinsonian conditions.

Laser Cueing
When the laser is switched on and the stick is lightly pressed down onto the ground as occurs with normal use, the laser is activated and projects a line onto the ground in front of the user. This Laser line acts as a visual cue to help trigger the first walking step, break freezing episodes, and increase stride length.

Safety
The laser is automatically switched off again when the cane is lifted from the floor to prevent the possibility of shining the laser upwards. Always ensure that the laser is switched off when not in use and kept out of reach of children.
