Abstract

Visually impaired people find difficulties detecting obstacles in front of them, during walking in the street, which makes it dangerous. Smart cane for visually impaired comes as a proposed solution to enable them to identify the world around. It is used for the smart navigation for visually impaired people in indoor and outdoor environment respectively. In this, we propose a solution, represented in a smart cane with the ultrasonic sensor to detect any other obstacles in front of the user, which is close enough. Moreover, another sensor i.e. water sensor is placed at the bottom of the stick for the sake of avoiding puddles. This proposed system uses the ATMEGA16 328 micro-controller embedded system and buzzer.
