As the technology increases we can solve many problems of the people. There are lots of persons who cannot walk very easily due to blindness. For them travelling with safety is a major problem. An intelligent electric vehicle is thus required to solve their problem. The vehicle is made with a lot of technologies such as Digital image processing for obstacle detection, edge detection and road detection, Sonar, Infrared and Lidar based Obstacle avoidance, GPS and Map based location guidance for vehicle, GSM based emergency servicing and semi automatic control system for vehicle. We propose a design of completly intelligent electric vehicle for blind which can be implemented successfully. The vehicle is designed in such a way that it can climb footpaths. The vehicle is designed to obey all traffic signals so that the design is apt for real world.
