Abstract: Blindness is the inability to see anything, even light. The term blindness is used for complete or nearly complete vision loss. Visual impairment may cause people difficulties with normal daily activities such as driving, reading, socializing and walking. The glasses don’t replace lost vision but assist with spatial awareness. Anyone using the glasses looks through them to make the most of their existing sight with additional images appearing in their line of sight to give extra information about who or what is in front of them. This study presents a system that it can prove to be very low cost solution to Blind People (BP) worldwide. In addition, it provides some parts of the hardware in order to get ride of some difficulties in terms of application.
