Intelligent path guidance robot for visually impaired assistance

Visually impaired has limited movement using the classic white cane. Currently, there are many designs for devices that can assist the blind moves better in unfamiliar environment. Then, controllers were applied in the devices’ system so that it can improve the system’s efficiency and accuracy in de...
