Abstract |
|
There are about 39 million blind people in this world. Living an independent life is still a dream for a majority of them. Blind people find it very hard to walk independently without tripping over obstacles on their path. Ultrasonic sensors are useful in detecting objects in front of them. Ultrasonic waves are emitted by the sender. It hits the surface and reflects. The time of leaving and coming back is noted. As the speed of ultrasonic waves is known, the distance of the obstacle can be identified. Raspberry Pi is a series of small single-board computers that can do the functions of a primary computer. Object and person identification is done with a camera that acts as the human eye. Using cloud storage increases the storage area. Text to speech conversion is done using the camera and raspberry pi. RFID tags are used to identify the buses. |
