Abstract: One of the social responsibilities of emerging technologies is to help physically challenged people. One of them is to assist the blind people to walk alone. The main challenges confronting the visually disabled people while walking is that they are not conscious of the environment as they move in and out because they are not fully aware of their position and direction with regard to traffic and barriers in their path. Smart shoes provide the blind people with auditory assistance in coping with the difficulties they face in walking like regular human beings. The objective is likely to make a self direction framework which helps outwardly tested (or daze) individuals to walk autonomously. The idea is more about the smart shoes that warn visually disabled people in their ways to challenge which may allow them to move with less collision. The target is to tackle a reliable solution that involves a shoe interacts with users through vibrations and audio alert. Our key contribution is towards energy efficient self guidance system.
