Abstract

In today's technologically advanced world, it's imperative to ensure that everyone, including visually impaired individuals, can navigate their surroundings safely and independently. In this paper, we present a novel solution: a Smart Blind Stick equipped with GPS tracking, a 2G GSM module, and ultrasonic sensors. This groundbreaking device is designed to improve the movement and safety of people with visual impairments by offering features such as live location monitoring, obstacle sensing, and communication functionalities. A smart blind stick is designed to assist visually impaired individuals in navigating their surroundings safely. The length of a smart blind stick can vary, but it typically ranges from around 100 to 150 centimetres (3.3 to 4.9 feet). This length allows the user to detect obstacles on the ground and in their immediate vicinity. The weight of a smart blind stick is usually kept lightweight for easy handling and portability. It typically ranges from 200 to 500 grams (7 to 17.5 ounces), although this can vary depending on the materials used in its construction The integration of these features empowers users to navigate with confidence, enabling them to overcome barriers and explore the world around them more freely.
