Design and Implementation of Superstick for Blind People using Internet of Things

Technologies are rising very rapidly, allowing people to make their lives safer and simpler. The smart stick is a tool for helping people who are sightless to recognise their path. Blind people suffer from a loss of ability to perform their day-to-day activities, from going down the street to visiting friends or relatives, or any other everyday things. Therefore by making a stick that will allow the person to walk safely without fear of hitting anyone on the way or other solid objects, the solution to this major problem is designed. The stick was designed using tools from Solid Jobs. Using Proteus tools to design and model electrical circuits, the electric circuit was simulated. We used ultrasonic sensors to do this. In the stick, one sensor was mounted and the other two were located on both sides, left and right. Vibrating motor and buzzer alarms were used to sense the motion from almost every side to warn the person if some obstruction is identified near him and led to tell the person who is coming towards him.
