Currently, visually impaired people use a traditional cane as a tool for directing them when they move from one place to another. Although, the traditional cane is the most widespread means that is used today by the visually impaired people, it could not help them to detect dangers from all levels of obstacles. The primary objective of this work is to permit blind persons to explore autonomously in the outside environment. A buzzer and vibrator motor are also added to the system. It provides the direction information as well as information to avoid obstacles based on ultrasonic sensors and infrared sensors. The proposed work is to use stick including a GPS and GSM navigator. Nowadays, a stick is used with some features but in our project we are using GPS module with some other advance features. This work goes giving the route to blind person by designing a cost effective and more flexible navigation system. The proposed system consists of hardware and software. Here the components we are using are micro controller, GPS module, etc. The project with help the blind people in improving their communication ability and not to depend on none during walking in even unknown areas.
