IoT based Third Eye for the Stone Blind

Abstract

Eyes are the primary sense organs for seeing the outside world; their failure has a significant impact on the outside world’s knowledge perceiving capability. As the technologies get advanced we can now enjoy most of the comforts as normal humans but visually impaired people cannot. Blind people usually depend upon specific support or help for them to do their daily work. They continue to face a variety of challenges in their lives. The proposed solution is a wearable band for people with visual impairments that can support them in navigating challenges and barriers and tracking their coordinates, which is then sent to a particular member of the family. This will be adorned with ultrasonic sensors made up of software components. The proposed technology works as a third eye for blind people because they have outstanding senses. A vibrator sensor is used in the band to provide vibration in their hand whenever a component is nearby. Also when the sensor detects any object the buzzer will make sound. Therefore it is an automated device. The blind person’s present position will be communicated to a particular person, who will be capable of locating individuals if they get lost and safeguarding them. This band will be of excellent assistance to blind individuals with regards to automatic identification and daily use.
