Abstract

Nowadays, Malaysia had 0.69 million visions impaired peoples and 56.6 thousand blind peoples. Normally, a visually impaired or blind person is very hard or near to impossible to notice where the obstacles are existed. Therefore, a travel aid device called My 2nd Eye has been designed in order to give warning signal to the user about the location of obstacle by using vibration motor in a glove. However, the existing My 2nd Eye is lack of flexibility because of the gloves must be connected to the stick plus, the glove also not comfortable for some users. In order to solve the problem, wireless communication must be applied and has been proposed in this project. In this project, a communication module such as XBEE as the module to connect main controller and vibration motor has been selected. By using XBEE modules, the vibration motor can be mounted anywhere without causing any trouble to user. That means the gloves can be replaced by some better design and more aesthetic value design. Then, the performance of the designed system like power consumption and reflection time of user would be tested to ensure the product can function properly. From the experiment, power consumption of normal usage would be 0.4742 Watts and Configuration 1 would be the best configuration of total six designs. As recommendation, more samples should be tested to confirm the reflection time of user. Besides that, the wristband can be replaced by something more aesthetic, for example, belt.
