Vision is a beautiful gift to the human being by the god. The proportion of visually impaired and blind people in the world has been increased very largely. In this paper, we are introducing a smart stick system for assisting the blind people. The smart stick comes as a solution to enable visually impaired people to find difficulties in detecting obstacles and dangers in front of the blind people during walking and to identify the world around. The system consists of various sensors along with the Arduino Uno microcontroller and the GPS-GSM.
