Visually impaired people usually rely on outside help by Humans, well-trained dogs, special electronic system. The issue with blinds is how to navigate the way where they want to move. Humans with proper eyesight help blind people. According to the World Health Organization (WHO), 10% of visually disabled people don't have enough eyesight to walk around without human help. This current project is designed to help the blinds to overcome by the hurdles using other senses like sound and touch. The device uses NI myRIO controller, which is a Xilinx Field Programmable Gate Arrays, and a dual‐core ARM (Advanced RISC Machine) Cortex‐A9 processor. HCSR04 ultrasonic distance sensor module is used to determine the distance. The sensor module is used to find the distance according to the principles of sound navigation and ranging or Radio detection and ranging, in which ultrasound is used to find the distance to the object. It includes a buzzer that generates a buzzer sound and a motor that generates a vibration signal. The device uses sound signals and vibration signals to alert users of impending complications. As the gap between the sensor and the obstacle decreases, the frequency of the buzzer and vibration signals increases, so the system provides navigation for those who need it, with short and clear response time.
