Assistive System and GPS Tracker for the Visually Impaired

We present a novel project involving an Arduino Uno-powered blind assist device that integrates an ultrasonic sensor and a GPS module. The ultrasonic sensor offers comprehensive obstacle detection, ensuring a full range of environmental awareness. Complementing this, the GPS module provides real-time navigation, enhancing user mobility. The detected obstacles prompt the JQ6500 voice sound module to generate audio instructions through a speaker module, guiding users to move or halt appropriately. This innovative setup empowers the visually impaired to navigate their surroundings confidently by receiving timely and precise guidance via real-time path view instructions. This device promotes independent and safe travel through the help of ultrasonic sensing, GPS navigation, and audio cues, granting users a newfound sense of freedom.
