Torch Design
To design a torch that can be mounted on a walking stick used by elderly or blind people in dark. The torch will have indoor as well as outdoor application during dark conditions to avoid accidents.
In collaboration with C-tech labs (A Sine- IIT Bombay Company) I worked on this brief during my internship there.

Concepts for a Light
Constraints
Based on my market research and interviews with users, I decided to make this torch portable. For charging purpose it can be removed from stick and fitted again once charging is done.
Also, the challenge here was to make a torch that can be fitted on the walking sticks of wide range of diameters.

Future Possibility
To improve the effect of light, LEDs can fitted tilting downwards. Providing taper for bottom part will serve the purpose.
