Abstract: God endowed the human being with sense of vision is an important aspect of our life. But there are some unfortunate individuals who lack the ability to imagine items. During their everyday life the visually impaired have to face many obstacles. The problem gets worse when an obstacle stands in front of them. Blind stick is a revolutionary stick designed to improve mobility for visually disabled people. The paper introduces a description of a theoretical framework to provide blind people with smart ultrasonic assistance. The program aims to provide overall indicators–artificial vision and identification of artifacts. The overall system aims at providing low cost and effective navigation assistance to a visually impaired person. Ultrasonic sensors are used to calculate distance of the obstacles around the blind person to guide the user towards the available path. Output is in the form of sequence of beep sound which the blind person can hear
