How NDIS coverage works for the Smart Cane 2?
NDIS plans are individualized, which means coverage for assistive technology depends on the goals and supports outlined in your specific plan. If you already have an NDIS plan, the most direct next step is to check with your plan manager or support coordinator whether assistive technology funding is available and how it can be applied toward the Smart Cane 2.

Life with the WeWALK Smart Cane 2 on streets
WeWALK Smart Cane 2 is designed to support everyday independence for visually impaired people navigating cities and towns. It detects obstacles at chest and head height that a traditional cane cannot reach, giving users advance warning before they make contact with a branch, a sign, or a parked bike. At streets, it supports safer, more confident navigation by helping users understand what is ahead of them before they step into traffic. Combined with turn-by-turn voice guidance, it becomes a daily companion for everyday life.
