The development of assistive technologies for visually impaired individuals has gained significant attention in recent years. This paper presents the design and implementation of smart glasses equipped with ultrasonic sensors to enhance navigation and obstacle detection for blind users. The system utilizes ultrasonic sensors to measure distances to nearby obstacles and provides real-time auditory feedback, enabling users to perceive their surroundings more effectively. A prototype was developed using an Arduino microcontroller, ultrasonic sensors, and bone-conduction headphones to ensure minimal interference with ambient sounds. Experimental trials involving blind participants demonstrated a significant improvement in obstacle avoidance and spatial awareness.
