does anybody know of a Walking stick for the blind anywhwere. free or pay dosn't matter. I need it for an up coming project.

example of what I am looking for. http://www.stlmedical.com/store/WK10352-1.html?gclid=CNSZ3ZvC-bMCFQuCQgodgmgAKA

While it's not a walking stick for the blind, I believe that Poser comes with a cane in the Primitives library. Maybe you could use it in a pinch. Alternatively, you could also fashion one using the cylinder primitive.

Just a thought.

Well, the rigged part so it can fold and the loop handle, are important.

Well, once again, still shouldn't be a problem if you use poser's Setup Room and create bones for each section. I didn't know you needed it to be rigged.

Materials for cap, foot, handle and cane.

I have to fix the sections so it will fold properly. Not sure from the picture how that works.

Thank you very much for your efforts!!! Are you asking how it folds in reality?? if so, there is a thick elastic ord that runs up the middle of the sections of the cane, and the hold the sections insode each other, to lock it ridged, when you want to fold it you pull the sections apart and fold it, how you woudl simulate that in Poser I have no I dea and it would not need to be that accurate for my purposes.

I found a close up pic of a folding cane , so I am modelling the sections differently.  I seem to have made the thing too thick so I am reducing the diameter a little since it seems its more a tool to find obstacles than hold people up.

I may have something later tonight.

You totally rock!!!!

Have a look and see if it is useable

I wont be offended if you find something else, I had some problems rigging it.

rename the file back to .zip and it should extract into your runtime.

Not uv mapped but materials for the parts. 

Scaled roughly to a poser adult, rescale as suits you.

The parts seperate to show a cord and the sections bend at the joins. Use the dials to pose .

just a thought but you might get a better bend by using y-scale in the join parts to make them a bit longer.

Thanks so much!!! I will have a chance to look at it tomorow,

this is really cool the cord bends a bit strangly but most of the time it will be unfolded, and when unfloding there will not be a need to be up close. so I think it is great so far!!!

I tried to lengthen the cord segments on the y axis and they distorted oddly, so I dont know if that will work or not, but I think this will do what i need it to for sure ;)

again you rock!!!

ok, thanks, post a new thread if you need it modified.
