Abstract

Technologies are growing very fast, which helps people to get a better and easier life. The smart stick is a technique to help sightless people to recognize their way. Sightless People suffer from the lack of ability to do their daily activities, from walking in the street to visiting friends or relative or any daily things. Therefore, the solution for this major problem is proposed by designing a stick that can aid the person to walk safely without having fear of hitting someone on the way or any solid objects. The stick has been designed using Solid Work software. The electric circuit was simulated using Proteus software for designing and simulating electrical circuits. In this paper, we have used three ultrasonic sensors. One sensor has been placed in front of the stick and the other two have been placed on both sides, left and right. To detect the motion from almost every side, it has been used vibrating motor and buzzer alarms to alert the person if some obstacle is detected near him.
