Multi-Functional Blind Stick for Visually Impaired People

Project Code :TEMBMA2964

Objective

The main objective of this project is to help blind people to walk without the help of others. This is a voice assistant system which will guides him when an obstacle moves towards them.

Abstract

The Multi Functional Blindstick for people who are visually impaired that might lead to improvements in the quality of life. The Blindstick is for the people who need to navigate independently and feel socially convenient and secure while they do so. It is based on the simple idea that blind people do not want to stand out while using tools for help. This project focuses on the significant work done in the field of hand held electronics and the features which comes as add-ons. The Blindstick consists of ultrasonic sensors to detect the object ahead in real-time and feeds the Arduino for analysis of the object distance. It can also assist the person on whether the object is closing in very fast and if so, provides a voice information regording direction using Speakers. 

Keywords: Ultrasonic sensor, Arduino, Speakers.
