Those who are blind have a lot of trouble going through their daily lives. A lot of effort has gone into making it easier for blind people to complete tasks on their own rather than relying on others. With this inspiration in mind, we proposed and created an intelligent blind stick. The smart walking stick assists visually impaired people in identifying obstacles and getting to their destination. There are a variety of walking sticks and devices that assist users in moving around both indoor and outdoor environments, but none of them include run-time autonomous navigation, object detection and identification warnings, or face and voice recognition. The stick uses IoT, echolocation, image processing, artificial intelligence, and navigation system technology to identify close and far obstacles for the user. If the blind person falls or has some other problem, then the system will send a warning to the designated person. The system uses voice recognition to recognise loved ones.
