The clicking measuring wheel is a low-cost, 3D-printed handheld tool for users with vision impairments. The function of this 3D Printed Assistive Device is to roughly measure a distance across a surface using auditory clicks. It comes in a variety of swappable wheels of 0.25”, 0.5”, 1”, 2”, and 4” increments. The device also has a pen holder that doubles as a shaft to hold all the parts together so users can draw a specific length.
