K8's White Cane provides SL guidance for the visually impaired (both RL or SL)

* requires RLV to work properly (without only limited functionality)
* tells you what or who you are bumping into
* sit on the last object bumped into: helps you to sit when you can't see
* following option to be guided by other people
* GPS function lets you create waypoints to be guided back to later
* simple AO for standing (configurable)
* cane can be folded or hidden
* ticking sounds when touching a new object (when folded out)

The AO is configured for right hand using only. In the rare case you desire a left handed version, please contact me in SL.

The detection script is fine, it skips phantom objects though. It looks nice, it is useful, but I cant get the GPS to work, the /2 gpshelp command does nothing for and there are no GPS instructions included in the product. It´s a shame because I am very happy with the blindness HUD of the same creator.

Pretty basic visually, AO is finicky and there's no explanation of the commands required to use this item.
