Embodiment Construction

[0014] Such as figure 1 As shown, a vision aid device includes a guide rod 1, a probe 2, a distance detector 3, a controller, and a reminding device. The probe 2 is located on the guide rod 1 and is perpendicular to the guide rod 1. Connected, the distance detector 3 is located on the probe 2, the reminding device includes a measurement reminding unit 4 and a roadblock reminding unit 5, the roadblock reminding unit 5 is located at the top of the guide rod 1, the measurement reminding The unit 4 is located at the bottom end of the guide rod 1, and the distance detector 3 and the reminding device are both connected to the controller.

[0015] The distance detector 3 is an infrared distance measuring card.

[0016] The infrared distance measuring card includes a PSD distance sensor and an infrared light emitting diode.

[0017] The roadblock reminding unit 5 is an eccentric motor.

[0018] The measurement reminding unit 4 is a pressure sensor.

[0019] A vision aid device is designed fo...

Abstract

The invention provides a vision assist device. The vision assist device includes guide rods, probe rods, distance detectors, controllers, and reminding devices; the probe rods are positioned on the guide rods and are perpendicularly connected to the guide rods; the distance detectors are positioned on the probe rods; each reminding device includes a measurement reminding unit and a roadblock reminding unit; the roadblock reminding units are positioned on the tops of the guide rods; the measurement reminding units are positioned on the bottom of the guide rods; and the distance detectors and the reminding devices are connected to the controller. The vision assist device is a humanistic design for special population with walking troubles due to eye diseases, is high in safety and practicability, is simple in structure, and is low in price and cost; through the distance detectors arranged on the conventional guide rods, the distance between the probe rods and the ground can be measured, and then a reminding effect can be achieved when users meet steps or roadblocks; and pressure sensors arranged on the bottom of the guide rods can control trigger of the distance detectors, and then control of power saving mode can be achieved.

Description

Technical field [0001] The invention relates to a vision aid device. Background technique [0002] A blind person is a person who suffers from an eye disease or accidental injury that causes blindness in both eyes or blindness in one eye. Due to visual impairment, blind people will encounter more difficulties than ordinary people in life and work, especially when traveling. Therefore, blind people generally use auxiliary tools, such as blind tracks, blind sticks, and guide dogs. However, considering the special population of blind people, which have poor production capacity, these auxiliary devices have their own advantages and disadvantages in terms of their safety, practicality, and price. First, the blind track is a national public facility, and there are widespread problems of irregular design and untimely maintenance. The cane is generally a long stick made of metal, which is a guide tool for the blind to walk. The cane is a passive guide, and the roadblocks can only pla...
