Abstract:
Proper navigation and detailed perception in familiar or unfamiliar environments are the main roles for
human life. Eyesight sense helps humans to abstain from all kinds of dangers and navigate to indoor and
outdoor environments. These are challenging activities for blind people in all environments. Many
assistive tools have been developed by the blessing oftechnology like braille compasses and white canes
that help them to navigate around in the environment. A vision and cloud-based navigation system for
the visually impaired or blind person was developed. Our aim was not only to navigate them but also to
perceive the environment in as much detail as a normal person. The proposed system includes ultrasonic
sensors detecting obstacles, cameras to capture images to perceive the environment using deep learning
algorithms. Blind people interacted with the whole system through a speech recognition module and all
the information was stored in the cloud. Android applications is developed to track blinds so that
guardians were monitoring them while visiting and reached them in an emergency. The experimental
results showed the proposed system could provide more plenty information and user-friendly
interaction.
