Walk With Path creates wearable tools for mobility. Path Finder 2.0 is its shoe-mounted walking aid for people experiencing Parkinson’s-related freezing of gait.
Path Finder 2.0 projects a green laser line onto the ground, giving the wearer a visual reference for taking a step when starting or resuming walking becomes difficult.
The device fastens to footwear with a strap around the heel and forefoot. An adjustment dial positions the cue in front of the opposite foot and allows its length to be matched to the user’s stride.
The units switch off automatically while the wearer is stationary to conserve battery power. The product is offered in M, L and XL; the manufacturer’s size guide helps users select the appropriate fit.
