This is one awesome piece of technology.

An innovative new Assistive Technology called the eCane is anticipated in
the market based on a patent that has just been announced. It uses a
combination of old and new technologies to produce a smart cane for people
who are blind, or deaf and blind (deafblind). It provides communications and
navigation on numerous levels. Moreover the eCane is not limited by the
restrictions that GPS units have by not being able to function indoors or
near tall buildings.
