Abstract
Navigating from one location to another, whether indoors or outdoors, is one of the most difficult tasks for the visually impaired. Besides, the helpless condition of the streets makes strolling outside much hard for them. They must remain vigilant at all times to prevent dangerous situations such as slamming into fixed or moving hindrances, rising or plunging flights of stairs, or slipping on soggy landscape. In danger situation send a caution message to their family members or companions about their whereabouts. The proposed approach uses the Internet of Things (IoT) to offer an association between the outwardly debilitated and their ecological components. Anomalies such as obstructions, staircases, and moist terrains can be detected using sensors. In addition, a software program is being developed to assist blind acquaintances in managing the stick's setup, such as adding or deleting mobile numbers to whom warning alerts must delivered, and misplacing the stick.
