One is the main circuit which will be mounted on the blind man s stick.
Smart blind stick project.
After msp430 powered the blind people can start using the smart blind stick.
The other is a small remote rf transmitter circuit which will be used to locate the main circuit.
On sensing obstacles the sensor passes this data to the microcontroller.
Using this smart blind stick a visually impaired person can walk without anyone s help.
The other is a small remote rf transmitter circuit which will be used to locate the main circuit.
This arduino smart blind stick project requires two separate circuits.
Based on the observation on the traditional white cane the blind people will always swing around the blind stick to get a confirmation on their surrounding.
One is the main circuit which will be mounted on the blind man s stick.
Through this the blind person can aware about the obstacles in front of him.
The smart blind stick automatically detects the obstacle in front of the person and give him a response to the person by vibrating the stick and also with a warning sound.
Our proposed project first uses ultrasonic sensors to detect obstacles ahead using ultrasonic waves.
The main board s circuit diagram is shown below.
Read arduino isp log.
This arduino smart blind stick project requires two separate circuits.
Smart blind stick project using arduino and sensors.
The device is designed with an intention to sort out common issues faced by the blind people while using traditional sticks.
This project is a smart stick which is capable of detecting any obstacle detect water and corners and even allow the user to find the stick if anyhow missed by the user by pressing a remote switch.
In this project i have shown the features and functionalities of a smart blind stick which can be used by people who are visually impaired and have trouble.
