Abstract
Eyes are organs of our visual system. In this paper, we are presenting a unique intelligent electronic eye that provides road guidance to blind people while they are walking. Surrounding visual data is collected by image and obstacle sensors mounted on a helmet which the user has to put in. The data is sent to a processor which works in a line similar to our brain function. The processor analyses the data and provides necessary voice information to the user which helps them in movement. The electric power for this unit is availed through solar photo voltaic module, piezoelectric source and also from electricity generated from body temperature. The device will help in great extent to the visually impaired people who are unfortunate see this beautiful world.
