Visually impaired persons depends on support of humans, pet animals and canes for navigation. So in our project, we are using ultra sonic sensor to detect the obstacles infront of them and make a buzzer sound which is fixed in their walking stick. so that they come to know that there is an obstacle.

Components Used
Ultrasonic Module HC-SR04 Ultrasonic module HC-SR04 is generally used for finding distance value and obstacle detection. It can operate in the range 2cm-400cm.	X 1

Description

Automation in technology is widespread, in various industrial applications. This is made possible by sensing devices, which serve as a medium between the machine and the environment. The ultrasonic sensor is an incredibly useful sensor in the field of automation. Sensing the distance for obstacles and navigating to a destination beyond the distance are the major problems for visually impaired persons in their day-to-day life. Visually impaired persons depend on the support of humans, pet animals, and canes for navigation. So in our project, we are using an ultrasonic sensor to detect the obstacles in front of them and make a buzzer sound which is fixed in their walking stick. so that they can come to a point that there some obstacle in front of them and they can move to the other side and walk. Thus they can easily walk alone and be independent.
