INTRODUCING:
The Panopticane
FOR OUR FIRST INITIAL BUILD OF THE PANOPTICANE:
WHAT IS THE PANOPTICANE?
This cane of the generation will help aid those who have impaired sight and possibly save them from a fatal accident. This all-seeing cane has the ability to detect an object in the front of the cane from 127 cm (50 inches) - hopefully preventing less injuries to those who can’t see.
WHAT DOES IT DO?
It notifies the user when there is an object in front of them, long before they are close enough to hit it. This will hopefully prevent any injuries or accidents.
HOW DOES IT DO IT?
With the help of Lego Mindstorm technologies, the gotta blast! team was able to successfully construct and program a fully functional robotic cane. Here's how we did it:
