Build an Obstacle-Detecting Walking Stick

This video tutorial explains how to build a prototype of an obstacle-detecting walking stick using an Arduino. The stick uses an ultrasonic sensor to measure distances to obstacles and a buzzer to alert the user. The tutorial covers the construction of the prototype, the circuit's functionality, and the Arduino code that controls the sensor and buzzer. It also discusses potential customizations and improvements for real-world applications.
