description Visual impairment is the loss of the ability to see either gradually or totally lost sight, this situation also call blind. People who suffer with this lost are called visually impaired. They are experienced many inconvenience and one of them is their mobility is totally affected where they camot travel like ordinary people because their visual information is less compare with other.

With this avoidance, visually impaired can less concern about their defective vision because they can follow the guidance path of the robot.
