slugDarshan: Electronics Guidance For The Navigation Of Visually Impaired Person
Journal Title: International Journal for Research in Applied Science and Engineering Technology (IJRASET) - Year 2014, Vol 2, Issue 6
Abstract
This paper presents Darshan a Navigation System for blind people to navigate safely and quickly, in the system an obstacle detection and recognition is done through ultrasonic sensors and USB camera. The proposed system detects the obstacles up to 300 cm via ultrasonic sensors and sends feedback in the form of beep sound via earphone to inform the person about the obstacle. USB webcam is connected with Raspberry Pi Embedded board which captures the image of the obstacle, which is used for finding the properties of the obstacle (Human Being). Human presence is identified with the help of human face detection algorithm written in Open CV. The constraints coming while running the algorithm on Embedded System are limited memory and processing time and speed to achieve the real time image processing requirements. The algorithm is implemented in Open CV, which runs on Debian based Linux environment.
