Canes and Grips Project

Developed for: Bill Mann, RERC on Aging/Abir Mullick, IDEA Center

This was done to test different styles of canes as well as their grips. All styles of canes and their grips, except for one, could be interchanged to see what the likes and dislikes may be for those who where in the study. The canes are made of aluminum with a powder coated finish for durability. The grips where designed and molds where made to pour them. Different types of materials where used to form the grips as well as hardness.
