Helping the blind and visually impaired to do some daily activities easily and without facing any difficulties.
Many people around the world suffer from many problems. And the most important problems are the physical problems that people with disabilities suffer from. Among the physical problems such as mental disability, hearing disability, physical disability, and visual disability. Visual impairment is one of the most serious and common problems for which solutions must be found. Where blind people suffer from many problems and difficulties daily in doing many things. They face many difficulties and one of these difficulties is moving easily and without the help of others. This project aims to find an easy and simple way to help the blind to move easily without anyone's help. After doing a lot of research, it was decided to make a smart stick for the blind in an easy way to warn them and tell them where the obstacles they might collide with, and also tell them which way they should go.
The project aims to solve some of the problems suffered by the visually impaired or the blind, such as their inability to move easily and their inability to carry out some daily activities that others do, as well as solving the problem of collision with objects. This project solves these issues by creating a stick with some hardware ands sensors that will help them. Where there is a sensor and a buzzer that alerts the blind if there is anything in front of him. It also contains a microcontroller and has some sensors such as a temperature and humidity sensor to make it easier for the blind to know the weather, and also all this information will be transmitted to a mobile application via Bluetooth, and this data will be transmitted in a voiceo for the blind to hear , and Airbods or headphones will be connected to the phone or to the mobile application via Bluetooth so that the blind can hear it with their ears. The mobile application will contain a tool to know the date and time, as well as the direction of the Qibla, and it has a recording tool. There will be control buttons on the stick, , for eample ,where when the blind wants to know the weather, he will press one of the buttons, and so on with the rest of the buttons and tools.This stick will help solve some of the problems facing the blind and will also help them to carry out daily activities easily and without the need of anyone. It will help solve the educational, social and psychological problems that the blind suffer from, and will also make it easier for him to communicate with the community around him, and will reduce the percentage of blind people in Egypt and the world. It will also help achieve some sustainable development goals ،such as it will achieve the goal of good health and well-being, as it will solve their problem of immobility, which will improve their psychological state and make them in more good health , as well as the goal of decent work and economic growth. Since if the sticks are manufactured, the factories will need workers and employees working in the factories, which will provide job opportunities for young people, and also if movement is facilitated for the blind, it will be easier for them to find suitable jobs for them , which will provide national income and economic growth will occur and also will help achieve another goal which is partnerships for the goal. When these sticks are manufactured in one country, other countries will need to import these sticks , which will strengthen relations between countries.
There are many problems in the world such as social problems, political and economic problems, physical problems and other problems, and they are all important problems, but the most serious problems are physical problems, as the number of people who have a physical disability in the world is about 1 billion person who suffers from a physical disability, based on the statistics conducted in recent years. There are many types of physical disabilities such as mental disability, psychological disability, hearing disability, visual disability or blindness. Visual impairment and blindness are among the most serious problems that need to be solved. According to statistics, the number of blind and visually impaired people in the world is 2.2 billion, and most of them are over fifty years old. The blind face many problems, including environmental problems, social problems, technology problems as well, and other problems. From environmental problems such as difficulty moving on their own and they need help to get somewhere.
The project aims to solve some of the problems suffered by the visually impaired or the blind, such as their inability to move easily and their inability to carry out some daily activities that others do, as well as solving the problem of collision with objects.

I searched for the problems facing my country and then the whole world, and I made statistics and asked some people in my community about the problems they face. I also searched for that on the Internet and saw the statistics that had already been made.
- Improving healthcare access and health outcomes; and reducing and ultimately eliminating health disparities (Health)
- Concept: An idea being explored for its feasibility to build a product, service, or business model based on that idea.
Perhaps the project will be new because it solves one of the problems that rarely anyone tries to find a solution to it, or it is difficult to find a solution to this problem, so I think it will be a new project in the world, and yes, I think it will make a change as it will solve many problems that You meet many people around the world. This stick will help solve some of the problems facing the blind and will also help them to carry out daily activities easily and without the need of anyone. It will help solve the educational, social and psychological problems that the blind suffer from, and will also make it easier for him to communicate with the community around him, and will reduce the percentage of blind people in Egypt and the world. It will also help achieve some sustainable development goals ،such as it will achieve the goal of good health and well-being, as it will solve their problem of immobility, which will improve their psychological state and make them in more good health , as well as the goal of decent work and economic growth.

When these sticks are manufactured in one country, other countries will need to import these sticks , which will strengthen relations between countries.
I hope that this project will achieve great success and influence in the world, and I hope that it will help many blind people around the world. If this happens and becomes a successful project, I am thinking of finding an easier way to do this project. I am also thinking of opening a company or a special place to make this stick for the blind so that they can easily obtain it.
This project will use the embedded systems, especially the microcontroller, which is one of the technological devices, and it will use the computer science specialty, especially the mobile application, which will be connected to the stick, which is also part of the technology. It will also use a simple part of the AI, especially the camera that will Scan the words, which is also technology.

The solution has not been released yet. I am thinking of helping 500 blind people this year, and next year, after developing the project, I am thinking of helping a larger number, ranging from 1000-3000 blind people in my country.
There are not many people in my country who specialize in the fields that I use in the project, so I try to look for someone's help, and the cost in my country is somewhat high to buy the tools used.
I do not work with any organization.
The project is needed by a large number of people around the world because it will help blind people to easily spend some daily life activities without facing challenges and without the help of others.
I'm thinking of looking for an organization to fund it and help me with it.
