Enhanced Mobility for Visually Impaired: A Smart Walker with Object Detection

People having vision disability have to go through various problems daily. Without the capacity to see the objects near them, individuals are more prone to collisions which cause serious repercussions. Navigation in crowded or unfamiliar environments can be difficult for blind people due to obstacles such as people, furniture, and uneven ground. Creating a system to save people's lives from unexpected collisions is essential. Enhanced Mobility for Visually Impaired: A Smart Walker with Object Detection was proposed to defeat all these issues. The system aims to design a smart walker that helps visually impaired people improve their mobility and stability. The proposed system uses a combination of computer vision, ultrasonic sensors, and real-time audio feedback to increase the mobility and safety of blind people during navigation. The Smart Walker has an onboard camera that scans the surroundings and uses computer vision (CV) techniques to detect obstacles and estimate the object's distance. The accuracy of the system is 86.25 percent.
