        abstract = {Visually impaired individuals often face significant challenges in mobility and navigation due to limited environmental awareness. Traditional mobility aids such as white canes provide only short-range detection and require physical contact with obstacles, reducing safety and confidence. Existing smart assistive devices are often complex, expensive, or inaccessible for everyday use.
This paper introduces Echo Vision, a low-cost, AI-powered smart glasses system designed to assist visually impaired users with real-time obstacle detection. The system uses an ultrasonic sensor to measure the distance of nearby objects and provides audio or haptic feedback based on proximity. The device operates on a lightweight microcontroller platform and is designed to be portable, energy-efficient, and comfortable for daily use. The scalable design enables future integration of AI and machine learning for object recognition and indoor navigation. Testing demonstrates that the device effectively alerts users about nearby obstacles, improving independence and safety.},
