Abstract : Impaired people have a really tough time getting around on the roads and in public because there are so many things in the way. They have to deal with surfaces and they do not get any help in real time. The white canes that impaired people use to help them walk around are not very good at finding things that are far away or above them.This paper is about a system that uses artificial intelligence to help visually impaired individuals get around safely and on their own. The system has sensors that use sound waves and infrared light to find things that are in the way. It also has a part that knows where the person is and can tell them what to do. If the person needs help the system can send a message to someone who can assist them.The system is small and easy to carry. It does not cost too much money. It is very good, at finding things that're in the way and warning the person about dangers. Impaired individuals can use this system to get around and it will help them be more safe and confident. The impaired individuals will be able to move around more easily and they will feel better because they have the visually impaired navigation system to help them.
