A Little Improvement Goes a Long Way
Vapen is a simple, yet ingenious improvement on the guide dog harness that incorporates a ball joint socket into the handle of the harness, providing people with visual impairments strengthened communication with their animal and improving ergonomics for their hand. The ball joint socket also allows the harness to be reassembled into a walking cane, reducing the number of items the user must carry. For further customization the handle and cane are adjustable in length to fit various users and dogs.

It was interesting seeing the design of this dog harness. Can it be used on regular dogs to take them on a walk alongside its primary use for seeing-eye dogs?
Eva Foo says
Unfortunately, Vapen can only be used on Guide Dogs since they are trained to be in the Guide Dog harness. It is not only a tool for the people with visual impairments to communicate with their Guide Dogs but also a sign for the sighted people to know that the dog with the harness is a service dog and is working.
