Abstract:

The paper describes a theoretical model and a software based concept for the construction of an overall Electronic travelling Aid (ETA). This paper puts forth a detailed navigation device with the help of which every obstacle and direction related problem of the visually impaired person can be easily solved. To make the device an updated and more reliable, it is being based upon Global Positioning System (GPS). GSM system is also adapted for further ease. These both techniques together contribute towards a proper ETA added with some special features. Microcontroller is being used for the interfacing of the GPS, GSM and voice module.
