Abstract

In the modern world, people are busy with their day-to-day routine chores. They do not have enough time to help old age and visually challenged people. Visually challenged people need help from other persons. To avoid this situation the project is more helpful for them to travel one place to another without third persons help. The proposed system consists of both hardware and software. Some of the hardware systems are Arduino Uno, Ultrasonic sensor, Heartbeat sensor, Accelerometer, Voice IC, GPS, and GSM module. IDE (Integrated Development Environment) is Arduino software. It connects to the Arduino and Genuine hardware to upload programs and communicate with them. GPS and GSM modules used to receive the signal and send the alert messages to the already registered mobile numbers. An emergency button is also used to send the emergency alert to the concern persons. Ultrasonic and Heartbeat sensor is used to detect the obstacle and to detect the heartbeat rate. This project will help the blind people for improving their communication ability and not to depend on anyone during walking in unknown areas.
