Abstract |
|
this paper introduces an electronic navigation system for partially sighted and blind people. The feature of this system is that it develops trace point of the subject surrounding habitat by implementing GPS module to extract the transcendence information which is transmitted using intuitive vibration feedback for navigation. The other feature includes distance measurement to avoid any obstacle in the path using ultrasonic sensor. System uses Arduino uno based embedded system to process real time data collected using GPS module and ultrasonic sensor. Subject is carried out with walked controlled under the real-world test and virtual world test environments with the system. |
