Abstract

Abstract: In this paper, we introduce a smart stick system for assisting blind people. The smart stick comes as a proposed solution to enable visually impaired people to find difficulties in detecting obstacles and dangers in front of them during walking and to identify the world around. The system is designed to act like an artificial vision and alarm unit. The system consists of three sensors: ultrasonic sensor, water sensor, and heat flame sensor, microcontroller (Arduino Uno R3) to receive the sensor signals and process them into short pulses to the Arduino pins where buzzers and led bulb are connected. We seek in our project to provide a smart stick affordable and suitable for most blind people, and also it is light in weight. It can be made available to all segments of the society and their families who need them. Keywords: SMART STICK, BLIND PEOPLE, ARDUINO UNO, ULTRA SONIC SENSORS, HEAT FLAME SENSOR.
