Abstract

Today technology is evolving at a rapid pace. Based on the recent survey of the World Health Organization (WHO) it is estimated that there are almost 1.3 billion people who suffer from some form of vision impairment. This paper addresses the complete integration of system which can facilitate the blind as well as visually impaired individuals to understand the surrounding beside them. The proposed system will provide a low-cost portable solution to help blind people. It consists of shoes having ultrasonic sensors to survey the scene. Once the sensors detect the object in front of the person the camera module gets activated. After detecting the object, camera module clicks the image of an object which is in front of the people and then it will be processed to detect the object type, according to which information will be sent as audio via a Bluetooth headset to the user. So, the visually impaired human will get the audio instructions accordingly about the obstacle in the dynamic environment.
