Abstract

The American Foundation for the Blind's (AFB's) National Technology Center and the Orientation and Mobility Training Program at California State University, Los Angeles, worked jointly to develop and evaluate a “kiddy cane” for use with young blind children aged 2–6. The prototype cane was designed at AFB and field tested by orientation and mobility specialists in southern California who worked with young children. Initial modifications were made on the basis of feedback from the specialists. Ongoing evaluation from the field is desired to make further improvements in the cane.
