Abstract: In recent times lots of assisting and navigating device were introduced to help the physically challenged person to make their life to be comfortable. When it comes to the blind people, the main concern is about their guidance in both the indoor and outdoor environment to avoid object collision. Basically they were guided by either by the alarm or beep sound when the object is interrupted on their way. What is the name of the object they could face? Whether it is a safe or unsafe? The above two issues is the major problem in assisting a blind person. To overcome this safety problem voice based assistance is provided to blind person in order to identify the objects which interrupt their way. The current location of the indoor environment is preloaded by geo tagging method. And zigbee protocol and digital compass is used to identify the current location of the blind person and adapt to their movement.
