“…Additional features are added in these devices such as GPS integration [3], Bluetooth wireless communication to user and device and RFID tags integration which is very specific to places like indoors. Some of these developments are usually wired and 105 therefore inconvenient to the user part thus can be minimize if the interfacing of the parts of the system such as the sensing and feedback unit are wireless [4][5][6][7][8]. An assisitive device in a form also of a guiding stick was also developed based on image identification embedded with road condition subsystem, navigation subsystem and a roller braking system.…”

Navigation in the physical environment is a challenge for those people who have very limited sense of sight or no vision at all. Assistive technologies for blind mobilization is not new and always have a room for improvement. Moreover, these assistive devices are limited in terms of its sensing and feedback abilities. This paper presents a microcontroller-based guiding stick capable of detecting several conditions of the environment such as obstacles in front, left and right positions of the user and detects ascending and descending staircases. The feedback is delivered by an audio output which dictates the direction to go or what condition the sensor detects in front of the user. Technical evaluation proves that the device was functional in terms of its accuracy, responsiveness and correctness. On the other hand, in the actual evaluation of the device with the visually impaired individuals, the device did not perform efficiently. It was also found that the device has the potential to be used effectively by the visually impaired who acquired their blindness in later stage of their life provided that they will have a proper training in using the device while navigating in the physical environment.

“…This tool provides information in the form of estimation of the distance a hitch with the user in the form of sound and vibration information, ultrasonic sensors HC-SR04 is used as a detector obstacle, the information in the form of voice module used Catalaex mp3 player, Indicator obstacle in the form of vibration used cell motor vibrator. Dwiono et al (2014) created a tool in the form of a stick, the information received by the user is in the form of vibrations received by the nerves in the hand. This tool uses a microcontroller system equipped with a proximity sensor, RFID reader, voice databases and RF wireless links, so hopefully can be manifested blind navigation tool that is effective and easy to operate, because the information provided is in the form of voice information in the form of place and distance.…”

This article discusses the improvement of the ability of the person of visually impaired in detecting object distance through the use of U-Qoserlin tools. This research used R & D method and continued with experiment. The subject of development experts consists of electrical engineering experts, orientation and mobility experts, and educational experts. The subject of the experiment consisted of five (5) the person of the visually impaired. The results of the study show that (1) U-Qoserlin tools are practical, feasible, useful and provide technological insights for the person of visually impaired; (2) the results of the data with the Mann Whitney test obtained the results of the smallest U hit value is 9, and U tab at a significant level of 95% and α = 0.05 for n = 6 that is 5. Thus, U-Qoserlin tool effective in improving the ability to detect solid object spacing for the person of visually impaired. The implications of this study are that there should be a test of the effectiveness of U-Qoserlin on the number of the person of visually impaired more.
