Type: conference-paper
Abstract: A smart cane is significantly designed to enhance daily needs of the individuals with Impaired Vision. The main innovation is the smart cane, which uses two ultrasonic sensors to detect impediments. The Smart Cane aims to provide a reliable and adaptable The Smart Cane seeks to improve the quality of life for those who are blind or visually impaired by offering a dependable and versatile tool that efficiently detects obstacles, ensuring that barrier alarms function properly, and treating the related psychological issues. Real-time information transfer is made possible by this connectivity, which improves the cane system’s flexibility and dependability in many settings. By linking the Smart Cane with other smart devices, the authors proposed using the Message Queuing Telemetry Transport (MQTT) protocol to guarantee user-friendliness. By adopting this approach smart cane users can take advantage of improved functionality as well as more connected and welcoming environments. Additionally, it offers real-time feedback, which aids users in overcoming the difficult environment. The existing object detection system was implemented using wired headphones, the proposed system is providing solution with Bluetooth communication using MQTT protocol.
