AAccording to a report by the World Health Organization, there are currently 285 million people in the world who are visually disadvantaged. Among those 39 million people are blind whereas 246 million people are living with low vision of some kind. Accessibility options can be improved with a simple walking stick, but life is still full of obstacles (障碍) for those people.To help this visually-challenged population, Chandigarh University’s student Lovelesh Dutt has developed a smart stick which helps them with their day-to-day activities, ensuring that their visual problem doesn’t prevent them from living a life of joy.Based on artificial intelligence, the smart stick has a number of features. For example, if any kind of object or animal or even human comes in the way of the user, then the stick. will generate a warning sound, besides producing vibrations (震动), making the user aware of the object coming in front of them.Dutt explains that the AI-based smart stick is connected to the GPS system, which provides information about the location of the user to their family. Besides, the stick draws its power from the sun with the help of a solar panel mounted on it, thus removing the problem of charging it.“The stick has an inbuilt emergency SOS network. In case of any emergency, the user can press the button on the stick, which will automatically send an SOS message to the police and family members along with the location of the user. Also, if anyone tries to harm the user, the inbuilt device at the bottom of the stick will give a shock of 400 kv to the offender, allowing the blind person to protect themselves,” he says.There is more to Dutt than just the smart stick. With exceptional performance in the field of research and innovation, Dutt is providing free。
