Guide Stick THEME: Solution for visually challenged people ABOUT : This project is useful for visually challenged people we used arduino uno,ultrasonic sensor, buzzer,vibrating motor,9v battery.
Problem Statement Visually challenged people need a third person’ support when they are going out Some of the visually challenged people are hearing disabled also Most of the Visually challenged people would like to be self dependant
SOLUTION We team “Tech Kids” ideated the challenges faced by disabled people. Here we are proposing a solution for visually challenged people to guide them by self using a stick. This guide stick will help the people to walk alone outside without anyone’s help. We also added feature for various vibration tone to alert if the people hearing disabled too. Buzzer and vibration motor communicate with the people to alert

Working of the prototype Ground level Ultrasonic Sensor at 45 degree angle 60cm – 100cm 100cm – 200cm 200cm – 800cm <45cm 30cm – 60cm Depth Buzzer ON Vibration ON Buzzer OFF Vibration OFF Buzzer ON Vibration ON for 1min Buzzer ON Vibration ON for 2min Buzzer ON Vibration ON for 100ms
Prototype Model of Guide stick Ultrasonic sensor Buzzer and Vibrating motor Arduino UNO board Battery
benefits The guide stick will help the people to alert the objects ahead with vibration and buzzer sound It can produce sounds by levels The colour of the stick makes the other people to find the visually challenged people Some people are visually challenged and hearing disabled also for that problem we fixed a vibrating motor also
Future modification We will modify the project by using solar panel without battery We will insert the sounds for top,right and left We will use GLOW IN THE DARK PAINT in the stick it will makes the stick bright in night We can also use a sensor in the stick`s end to find the objects in the ground
conclusion Our project is very useful for visually challenged people to walk frequently or freely without any help from others I HOPE MY PROJECT IS VERY USEFUL FOR VISUALLY CHALLENGED PEOPLE THANK YOU…….
