Mobility tools (Belt Cane, rectangular cane, long cane, and human guide) all share a common feature, they provide body-to-device-to-surface link. They allow the blind person to touch the ground ahead this additional sensory information helps stabilize walking in much the same way vision does. When a cane touches the ground, it sends signals to the brain about the surface and body position, acting as an extension of the sensory system.

Mobility tools for children with a visual impairment are specially designed to meet their unique needs. Unlike adults, children require devices that are lightweight, easy to handle, and adaptable to their smaller frames. The pediatric mobility tool category includes various aids, but the Belt Cane has gained attention for its practical benefits.

Playgrounds should be places of freedom, not frustration — especially for blind children. The Pediatric Belt Cane gives young blind kids the ability to explore, climb, swing, and slide with confidence by providing real-time tactile feedback about their environment. It’s not just a mobility tool — it’s the key to truly inclusive, independent play.
