 2. Introduction

In this protocol when find object but distance greater

than 3 miter then it not sense, if distance less than 300 cm
then it sense and create sound. The same approach is also
used in many applications. One is Giving blind people the
great accessibility to their environment is the objective of
the smart glass system.
The key function of the another system is to enable the
user inperceiving social signals during a natural dyadic
[Link] third system is a design, fabrication,
assembly, and characterization of a fully- integrated single-
chip glass BGA package at 40/80 μm off- chip I/O pitch
with multilayered wiring and through-package- vias (TPVs)
at 160 μm pitch.
The ClimaWin project's main goals are to improve both
indoor air quality and the energy efficiency of new and
refurbished buildings, through the use of novel green smart
windows.
Another one is an indoor navigation wearable system
based on visual markers recognition and ultrasonic
obstacles perception used as an audio assistance for blind
people.
There was a solution for the blind people to walk safely
by detecting obstacle and generating corresponding alert
signal according to the distance of the obstacle. The
Microsoft Kinect camera enables a mobile robot to do
essential tasks like localization and navigation.
There is a design of a small portable electronic cane
utilizing Polaroid's Ultrasonic Ranging Unit intended to
6
supplement or replace the traditional long cane is presented .
A. Proposed Mode
Blind as a special group in society, the needs of society
to give them more care and attention, so that they are
better able to live independently. However, how safe
walking blind life is the biggest problem.
Traditional navigation device mostly blind cane, blind
by tapping the ground or walking around the object to
determine the direction, the structure is simple, single
function, easy to use, but the secondary effect is not very
obvious, in fact, will encounter many problems when using
the blind such as poor road conditions, uneven, hanging in
front of obstacles, ordinary cane can not be proven
accurate, such a serious impact on the safety of blind
travelers.
A smart ultrasonic glasses for blind people comprises of
a pair of wearable glasses, ultrasonic sensors for detection of
obstacles in the way of blind man, a buzzer to give the sound
as per the direction of the obstacle from the man, a central
processing unit comprising of Arduino NANO which takes
the information from the sensor about the obstacle distance
and processes the information according to the coding done
and sends the output through the buzzer, power supply is
given to the central unit which distributes the power to
different components.
The sensor is mounted in between of the top bar and
bridge present in optical glasses as shown in the figure. All
the components are connected to the central unit using single

7
strand copper wires and the power is given to the central
unit using a USB cable.
The best sensors that can be used will be ultrasonic
sensors because ultrasound is a strong point, the energy
consumption of slow wave propagating in the medium
relatively far distance. Therefore often it is used to measure
the distance over big length. At the same time, ultrasound
for the object in the dark, dust, smoke, electromagnetic
interference, toxic and other harsh environments have a
certain ability to adapt, with a wide range of applications.
The ultrasonic sensor is fixed at a perpendicular from
the glasses.
According to claim 1, as the blind man goes closer to
the obstacle the distance sent by the sensors to the central
unit will decrease. Hence the beeping of the buzzer will take
shorter intervals and hence the beeping will be faster. But as
the man will go far away the beeping will take long intervals
and hence decrease.
The ultrasonic glasses are very cheap resulting in a very
cheap device affordable by all.
These smart glasses are very easy to use and very simple
to understand. If a blind uses it for 2-3 times then he/she
will understand the working and can handle it easily

 Proposed Protocol

In this protocol sensor find out the object from distance,

if it found with in300 cm then it give sound and aware the
user. Also if it more nearer it give more sound effect.

 Field of Invention

There has always been a need for the person with

disability to live a normal life and get opportunity to excel
in the world. There have been many inventions so far to
bring such peoples on the same grounds like others. Some
have failed but some have made it well. The science and
technology in today’s world has always tried to serve the
mankind in the health and safety field and same is the motto
of this project.
Description of the invention:
This device helps the blind people to easily feel the
obstacles in front of them and can save them from
accidents. They could buy this product at a very cheap rate.
With the help of E- Wastes this project has been built. The
blind people could become independent.
These “GLASSES” are designed for blind people.
The concept of obstacle detection by SONAR sensor has
been used here. As soon as the obstacle is detected by the
sensor, its distance it sent to the Arduino. We convert the
distance into centimeters from milliseconds and check
whether the distance of obstacle is less than 3m, if yes then
we send the output through a buzzer. The beeping
frequency of the buzzer is indirectly proportional to the
distance of the obstacle from human.
The other products which are in the market with
same purpose and in the same field are not so cheap in
costing and user-friendly. Also no use of any high level
technology is used here just simple arduino coding with
10
 sonar sensor and a buzzer the whole project is built-up.
This device is very easy to use and very simple to understand
this makes it user-friendly. Also it is very cheap thus
affordable.

 Ultrasonic Sensor


An ultrasonic sensor is a type of electronic sensor that

uses ultrasonic waves to determine the distance between two
objects and converts the reflected sound into electrical
signals. The working principle of an ultrasonic sensor is to
measure distance using ultrasound, which travels faster than
sound that is audible.


13
NE 555 IC

The 555 timer IC is an integrated circuit used in a variety

of timer, delay, pulse generation, and oscillator applications.
It is one of the most popular timing ICs due to its flexibility
and price. Derivatives provide two (556) or four (558)
timing circuits in one package.
The design was first marketed in 1972 by Signetics and
used bipolar junction transistors. Since then, numerous
companies have made the original timers and later similar
low-power CMOS timers. In 2017, it was said that over a
billion 555 timers are produced annually by some estimates,
and that the design was "probably the most popular
integrated circuit ever made

14
10k Ohm Resistor

A10k ohm Resistor is a passive resistor but is a great help

in controling the flow of electric current in the circuit

1k ohm Resistor

15
100 mf /25V Capaitor

A capacitor in its most primitive form consists of two

conductive plates separated by a dielectric medium.

10k preset device

A potentiometer has the two terminals of the input

source fixed to the end of the resistor. To adjust the output
voltage the sliding contact gets moved along the resistor on
the output side. This differs from a rheostat, where one end
is fixed, and the sliding terminal is connected
to the circuit.

Advantage

- Enhance Nevigation
- Object Recognition’
- Improved Accessibility
- Phychological benifits
- Blind people and people with vision difficulties can be
able to read, study and learn everything from any printed
text images. “Smart Glasses” encourage blind people or
people with vision difficulties to learn and succeed in
many different fields.

22
Limitations

An individual with vision loss could have a limited visual

field, be unable to distinguish colors, have limitations after
nightfall, be photosensitive, have low vision, or have
progressive vision loss. Individuals with vision loss
experience some degree of difficulty seeing even with the
use of corrective lenses

23
Applications

The first task of the glasses is to scan any text image and
convert it into audio text, so the person will listen to the
audio through a headphone that’s connected to the glasses.
The second task is to translate the whole text or some words
of it by pressing a button that is connected to the glasses as
well.

24
Future scope

1. Smart glass will be used in educational training making

classes more interactive and enabling students to hone
their skills more easily
2. It .many lenses are created digitally so they can include
more visual data, which helps to increase clarity across
the whole lens

25
 Conclusion

This smart glass implemented for blind person who are

unable to see any object so this person can aware about
accident. In future it can be implemented as a image
recognization where sensor give information user about the
object.
