In Malaysia, one in four adult experiences functional difficulties, with vision impairment being the most common at 2.4%. Existing assistive devices often lack effectiveness in enhancing spatial awareness and object recognition. The Sonic-G Device, a wearable innovation utilizing ultrasonic sensors integrated into glasses, addresses these limitations. Key components include a colour sensor, ultrasonic sensor, buzzer, switch, and Arduino Nano. Lightweight, affordable, and user-friendly, it enhances outdoor navigation safety. Aligned with Sustainable Development Goal 3, it promotes health and well-being. Currently at Technology Readiness Level 5, the device is nearing pilot testing and commercialization, with no similar product available locally.
