A system for usage guidance using wireless communication includes a portable computing device, wherein the portable computing device is designed and configured to wirelessly receive a signal from a wireless signal generator located at an item, parse the first signal for at least a textual element, extract a signal generator class identifier from at least a textual element, identify a remote data structure as a function of the signal generator identifier, retrieve, from the remote data structure, at least an identifier-specific datum, and generate identifier-specific usage guidance as a function of the at least an identifier-specific datum. The system includes a user output component coupled to the portable computing device, wherein the user output component is configured to provide the identifier-specific usage guidance to the user.

A system for usage guidance using wireless communication includes a portable computing device, wherein the portable computing device is designed and configured to receive a signal from a first transmitter, parse the signal for at least a textual element, identify, in a first data structure, a first location and a second location of the signal, retrieve, from a second data structure, a usage data, and generate identifier-specific usage guidance as a function of the first location and the second location of the signal and the usage data. The system includes a user output component coupled to the portable computing device, wherein the user output component is configured to provide the identifier-specific usage guidance to a user.

An RFID device includes a case, an antenna, and a power receiving coil. The case includes a rotation mechanism. The antenna is provided in the case. The power receiving coil is provided in the case away from the antenna in an axial direction of the rotation mechanism. The power receiving coil is connected to a power receiving unit that charges a battery. The power receiving coil has a cylindrical shape.

The present invention relates to a smart sensor cane for blind people. The smart sensor cane comprise of a processing unit, a surrounding data collection unit, a front data collection unit. The Processing unit further comprise of a solar panel, a slot for GSM module, a speaker unit, a height adjustment control unit, a battery unit and a microcontroller. The surrounding data collection unit further comprise of plurality of sensors and plurality of red led strobe light. The front data collection unit further comprise of plurality of LASER sensors, metal tip and led signal light. The microcontroller in the present invention is connected to the plurality of sensor, the LASER, the solar panel, the slot for GSM module, the speaker unit, and the height adjustment control unit, the battery unit. The GSM module is connect between the microcontroller to mobile objects and cloud server.

A method is disclosed as including sending, to a remote server, information identifying a first location within a building. In response to such sending, data may be received from the remote server. The data may comprise a plurality of unique identifiers, each unique identifier thereof corresponding to a unique radio tag located in a unique location within the building. The data may be used to deliver to a user a first series of audible commands guiding the user within the building toward the first location. For example, a first radio transmission may be received from a first radio tag located within the building. The first radio transmission may communicate a first identifier that is associated within the data to first navigation information. Thus, the first navigation information may be used to guide the user within the building toward the first location.

When a frontmost white line of a crosswalk cannot be detected due to an obstacle existing on the crosswalk, an edge position of the obstacle closer to a pedestrian in an image acquired by a camera is set as the frontmost white line of the crosswalk. As a result, a vibration generation device vibrates in a pattern that urges the pedestrian to stop at the time when the pedestrian reaches a position before the edge position of the obstacle closer to the pedestrian, so that a stop notification for walking can be appropriately performed to the pedestrian even when the obstacle exists on the crosswalk.

It is determined whether a traffic light is recognized in an image based on each of a result of a recognition operation by a traffic light first recognition unit (a recognition operation of the traffic light for an image acquired by a camera using a learned model based on pre-annotated data) and a result of a recognition operation by a traffic light second recognition unit (a recognition operation of the traffic light for an image acquired by the camera based on a feature amount of the traffic light). This makes it possible to sufficiently obtain the recognition accuracy of the traffic light, and to appropriately perform an instruction to a pedestrian according to the state of the traffic light.

In a mobility support device, an external device that is present on a moving route of a user who is a target of support is identified based on a set moving plan, and first communication means that enables direct communication between the identified external device and a white cane carried by the user is established. Then, support information for supporting mobility of the user is generated based on information received from the external device by the first communication means, and the generated support information is output to an output device.

A multi-function cane for the visually impaired can have an adjustable elongate shaft, a distal tip with a free end for contacting the walking surface, and a compression brake disposed between the shaft and the distal tip. The distal tip can have a distal portion rotatable about the axis of the cane shaft. The compression brake can allow the distal tip of the multi-function cane to rotate so the cane operates as a mobility cane when the brake is disengaged. The application of a compressive longitudinal force can engage the brake to prevent rotation of the distal tip so the cane can be load-bearing to operate as a support cane.

A smart walking stick made up of main parcels including the upper body forming the upper body and the lower body elements forming the lower body. With the aim of positioning the hand correctly for the visually impaired user, sensors are provided, which contain technological elements such as soft-grip upper gripping surface and the lower gripping surface, touch mouse, vibration motors and a smart module that allows the user freedom of movement. A folding bar forms the stick portion of the movement-releasing smart walking stick which can be replaced by a snap-fit method, with the motion-liberating smart walking stick this allows the visually impaired user to easily, safely and comfortably navigate with location information, which increases the freedom of movement, to detect and protect the obstacles in front of the movement, and to maintain a more ergonomic life.
