Journal Title: IOSR Journals (IOSR Journal of Computer Engineering) - Year 2015, Vol 17, Issue 6

Abstract

Abstract: This paper suggests a navigation structure for visually impaired/blind people using A star algorithm. The proposed structure is consisted of two parts. In the first part planning the path and in the second part avoiding obstacles. The aim is to guidevisually impaired/blind people from a required location to a desiredlocation. Two tests are run in each part and modeled in C sharp language and MATLABprogram. Simulation results show good performance for the proposed scheme that the visually impaired/blind people reach the desired location successfully without error. In conclusion, A star path finding algorithm using C sharp language was a valid and reliable method to guide the visually impaired / blind people from a required location to a desired location in indoor environment with or without obstacles.
