This project aims to develop a wearable device to assist visually impaired individuals in identifying obstacles when entering unfamiliar rooms. Using advanced distance sensors, it provides real-time haptic feedback, enabling users to map and navigate their surroundings safely and independently. This development has been guided by insights from visually impaired individuals themselves, with the goal of creating a device that integrates seamlessly into their daily lives. The primary objective is to enhance the quality of life for visually impaired people by promoting greater independence and safety without relying on a guiding stick. Existing solutions often fail to provide real-time and accurate information to the users. This wearable device addresses this gap by offering reliable distance sensors and immediate feedback through vibration signals, empowering users to navigate spaces independently and confidently.
