Smart Navigation System for Blinds using Internet of Things

Abstract

This research work presents the development of a smart navigation for blind people using Internet of Things. In this project we will be using Raspberry pi to which we will make smart stick for blink people which will be embedded with moisture and ultrasonic sensor to detect the real time hurdles while walking with the Google Maps cloud attached to the raspberry pi for perfect navigation for the low-vision or blind people. This will make a smart system which will be very useful for the blind people and also at the same time more accurate and safe. The blind people interact with the system in voice. The proposed system can provide more abundant surrounding information and more accurate navigation, and verify the practicability of the newly proposed system
