According to a report released in 2012 by the World Health Organization, out of every 100 people in Rwanda is visually impaired. The current number of visual impaired people is about 400,000. Only two schools in the country are specialized in teaching to visually impaired students. Ideally, every district should have a school for the blind to avoid children travelling from one point of the country to the other.
Most blind people are not getting jobs because people think they cannot work or operate machines such as a computer. There is an obvious need to help this people using the Internet by providing a database of information that is suitable to their lives. These statistics impresses me to ask myself what I can do with my acquired skills to reduce the limitations and challenges exposed on blind people. It is where I came up with a digital blind walking that can assist to remark the obstacles less or equal to 50 cm distance with an appropriate sound until you cross away from the obstacle.
Our mission is to help the blind people to walk without the guardian and increasing their productivity.
To serve the blind walking stick to all blind people of Rwanda and neighboring regions.
