Vision for the Blind

Sammanfattning: How can we improve the living standards of the visuallyimpaired using an Arduino?Living with visual impairment could potentially be oneof the hardest things one could do. Constantly having toworry about obstacles and carrying a stick to feel your wayforward. In order to combat this difficulty, we have designedVision for the Blind.One of the usages of ultrasonic sensors are to measurethe distance from objects using sound waves. These sensors,in combination with Piezo buzzers, have been used inVision for the Blind to warn the user of incoming obstaclesby emitting sound from the buzzers. The volume of thebuzzers is controlled by using a digital potentiometer andvaries depending on the measured distance. All three areconnected to an Arduino which has been coded to performthe given task.
