Abstract
Today's technology is improved to a greater extent for the betterment of people, but there are some people with
disabilities like blindness. In order to overcome their problem a smart stick is designed with GPS-GSM module,
ultrasonic sensor that would help them in their way to identify obstacle. Ultrasonic sensors calculate the distance
of the obstacles around the visually impaired person to guide the user towards the necessary path. This paper
describes about how each components would help them. This also helps to find the stick if it is lost. The tool says
that, the smart walking stick that alerts visually-impaired persons over obstacles, fire, and water and could help
them in walking with less accident.
