Abstract: Abnormalities in visual function are a devitalizing condition that has affected millions of people globally. Outwardly disabled individuals discover troubles recognizing obstacles ahead of them which makes it unsafe to navigate without a guidance of sighted person. There are plethora of challenges which are faced by a visually impaired person, but we figured out the dominant problems and tried to simplify their lives by implementing a smart cane using modernized technologies. We designed a stick that basically contains two parts. The upper part is dedicated to detect the obstacles in all the three directions using an ultrasonic sensor and provides navigation instructions via voice message. A unique feature of our project is that the language to give commands can be chosen in the favor of user. However, we opted English as the medium of communication. The second part which is mounted at the lower end helps to locate the user during emergency calls by sending a google map link along with the parameters of latitude and longitude in the form of text with the help of GPS and GSM module. This part also consist of water sensor that alerts the presence of two levels of water via buzzer. Moreover, the levels are differentiated by two various frequency values. It is an effective device and will ease the lives of blind.
