Abstract

Blind mobility is one of the most significant obstacles that visually impaired people face in their daily lives. The loss of their eyesight severely limits their lives and activities. In their long-term investigation, they usually navigate using a blind navigation system or their gathered memories. The creation of the work to develop a user-friendly, low-cost, low-power, dependable, portable, and built navigation solution. This paper (Smart Glasses for Blind People) is intended for people who are visually challenged. They encounter various threats in their everyday life, as current dependable gadgets fail to fulfil their expectations in terms of price. The major goal is to aid in a variety of daily tasks by utilizing the wearable design format. This project includes an ultrasonic sensor, a microcontroller, and a buzzer as far as hardware goes. Here, an ultrasonic sensor is used to identify obstacles ahead. When the obstacles are detected, the sensor sends the information to the microcontroller. The data is then processed by the microcontroller, which determines whether the barrier is within the range. The microcontroller delivers a signal to the buzzer if the obstacle is within the range. When an impediment is recognized within a certain range, a buzzer or beeper emits a buzzing sound. These data are saved in the cloud, and a mobile app is developed to keep track of the location and receive alarm notifications.
