Abstract: The goal of the project "A Walking aid for Blind Navigation" is to develop a small and reliable system for assisting the blind and visually impair people, so that they could navigate in a known area. In this paper we present an overview of the prototype, design issues, and its different modules which integrate some computer vision algorithms with slight modifications at some places. The prototype addresses local navigation by analyzing known landmarks, depth detection of the closest object in the scene(so that visually disabled person could get rough idea about how far the closest hindrance is present), obstacle avoidance and object recognition.
