Abstract: In this paper, we present and describe an electronic stick with buzzer alert to help visually impaired people when they walk in uncomfortable environments.There are more number of people who have difficulties and problems in their day-today life due to their visual problem.Walking with ease and confidence is considered as the one of their difficulties in unstructured environments.By considering this issue, a new electronic stick with Rf remote transmitter and receiver is developed which uses Ultrasonic sensor and buzzer. Ultrasonic sensor is capable of detecting obstacles/objects in front of the visually impaired person if there is any obstacle/object is present in their walking path.Ultrasonic sensor calculates the distance between the visually impaired person and an obstacle.If the calculated distance is in between the given range, there is an alert. Rf remote helps the visually impaired people to find the location of their electronic stick . Many experiments have been conducted in many places by more number of people to check and ensure the correctness of an electronic stick and the outcomes are good enough.
