ABSTRACT
Visually challenge people find difficulties detecting obstacles before of them, during walking within the road,
which makes it dangerous. The smart stick comes as a proposed solution to enable them to identify the
world around. The project describes ultrasonic sensor blind walking continue the use of Arduino Nano. in step
with World Health Organization (WHO), so 30 million people are permanently blind and a pair of.85 million
people with vision impairment so now, this smart stick will have an ultrasonic sensor to sense distance from
any obstacle and a RF remote using which the visually handicapped person could remotely locate his stick.
Keywords: Arduino Nano, Ultrasonic Sensors, Gps Module, GSM Module.
I. INTRODUCTION
The aim of this project is initiative is to enable the blind people walk confidently and to be alert if their walking
route becomes obstructed with other things, people or related odds. within the circuit, a buzzer is attached as a
signaling, whose beep frequency changes depending on the space of the target. The smaller the obstacle gap, the
more frequent the beep buzzers. we are ready to say the length of the beep is inversely proportional to the size.
The ultrasonic sensor is that the most feature of this device. The ultrasonic sensors transmit sound pulse at
high frequency, so measure the quantity to urge the sound echo signal to mirror back There are 2circles inside
the sensor. one of them transmits the ultrasonic waves and is that the transmitter. the other each may be
a receiver and collects the repeated sound signal (mostly atiny low microphone). The sensor is adjusted in step
with air velocity of the echo. therewith measured information, the time difference between sound pulse
propagation and detection is ready by calculation of the gap to the target. This circuit is powered through a
switch by a 9 volt battery.

III. SOFTWARE REQUIREMENT
Arduino

Programming language:- C

IV. HARDWARE REQUIREMENT
Ultrasonic ranging module HPSR04
Ultrasonicsensor: An ultrasonic sensor may be a device that may measure the space to an object by using
sound waves .It measure distance by sending out a acoustic wave at a selected frequency and listening for
that acoustic wave to restore. The ultrasonic transmitter an ultrasonic wave this wave travel in air and when it
gets object by any material it gets reflected back toward the sensor this reflected wave is The accuracy of
ultrasonic sensor is suffering from temperature and humidity of the air it's being employed. It operated in
frequency in 40 Hz. It can measure the space 2 cm to 80 cm .This sensors is extremely popular because multiple
purpose application.

Buzzer:A transducer (converts current into energy) that typically operates A buzzer is within the lower portion
of the audible frequency range of 20 Hz to twenty kHz. This is often accomplished by converting an electrical,
oscillatingsignal within the audible range, into mechanical energy, within the style of audible waves. Buzzer is
employed during this research to warn the blind man against obstacle by generating sound proportional to
distance from obstacle

LDR(Light Dependent Resistor)

V. RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
We have many reasons to style smart stick for blind; firstly, the blind to be at liberty, isn't surrounded by wires
as in belt and its content. Secondly, is easy to use because it's familiar and affordable. Thirdly, to be able
to detect obstacles that exist on the underside (this isn't available in glasses), which he walks indoor and
outdoor is faced by obstacles like puddles and sidewalks. As we are able to see in Fig. 3 an Arduino UNO is
used to manage all the sensors. the entire board is powered by a 9V battery which is regulated to +5V
employing a 7805 transformer. The Ultrasonic sensor is powered by 5V and also the trigger and Echo pin is
connected to Arduino UNO pin 9 and 10 The output of the board is given by the Buzzer which is connected to
pin 11 and Motor which is connected to pin 13.

VI. CONCLUSION
All the studies which had been reviewed show that, there are variety of techniques for creating a ultrasonic
blind stick for blind people. The aim of this paper is to urge conversant in the work tired making walking stick
smarter and more helpful. The literatures associated with this subject were reviewed and analysed. As
technology improves these smart sticks must be modified. The simulation results are expected for the
ultrasonic sensors, water sensor and ESP8266 in one microcontroller. So during this paper wide survey of the
work associated with this project is completed which we have shortlisted some useful aspects from each
project. this could also help to decide on designing approach.
