Electronics Travels Aids (ETAs) are electronic devices that are created to help the blind navigate their environment. To help the visually impaired people to navigate the environment, this paper seeks to address the following goals: • Detect object in path of travel • Detect motion of object • Detect horizontal • Detect vertical location of object • Detect shape of object Brail Vision consists of a belt of vibro-motor actuators which will be mounted to user’s head, and an android phone as the processing unit and camera. The ETA was mainly developed to enable experimentation with the algorithm proposed which is described in detail in this paper. The proposed system managed to meet 80% of the targets. The paper details how the proposed system was implemented and tested.
