Some infrastructure can be provided for the blind people so that they can feel safe while travelling. A smart stick
can be proposed as an additional aid for the blind to improve mobility. The stick helps to sense obstacles and provide assistance
to return to home safely. The stick helps to detect the vehicle coming towards the user by means of strong sensors employed in it.
This enables the blinds user to cross roads without assistance. The Assistor works based on the technology of object recognition,
image processing and human recognition and a navigation system. This model implements a camera on the hand of the stick. It
captures the images of person approaching the user. Using convolutional neural network algorithm(CNN), the stick recognize
the image and it returns the identity of that person. Ultrasonic sensors are used for obstacle detection. Three of them
together helps to detect the vehicles passing by. Atmega328 microcontroller controls the activities taking place in the system.
