چکیده
This paper presents an electronic travel aid for blind people to navigate safely and quickly, an obstacle detection system using UVC camera based visual navigation has been considered. The proposed system detects the obstacles up to 300 cm via sonar and sends feedback in form of beep sound to inform the person about its location. In addition to this, an UVC webcam is connected to 32 bit ARM micro controller which supports features and algorithms for designing of blind people guidance stick. This supports image processing which are used to processes images and give voice response after detection. which is used for finding the properties of the obstacle in particular, in the context of this work, Identification of human presence is based on face detection and object detection. The algorithms are implemented in open CV ,which runs on LINUX environment. Keywords— Electronic Travel Aid; Face Detection; Mobility; Navigation Aid; Visual Impairment
