Walking-Stick-for-Visually-Impaired-

The study hypothesizes that a Walking Stick that alerts visually-impaired people over obstacles in front could help them in walking with less accident. The aim of the project is to address the development work of a cane that could communicate with the users through voice alert and vibration, which is named Walking Stick Plus for Visually Impaired. The development work involves coding and physical installation. A series of tests have been carried out on the Walking Stick and the results are discussed. This study found that the Walking Stick functions well as intended, in alerting users about the obstacles in front.The main aim of this project is to contribute our knowledge and services to the people of blind and disable society by certain techniques like tracking the location of user by the use of GPS Module and send message with location to the concerned person in case of emergency by the help of GSM Module.
