This paper represents a comprehensive review that explores the paradigm shift brought about by intelligent technology in addressing the challenges faced by visually impaired individuals for obstacle detection and navigation. Divided into three pivotal categories, shoe-related devices, innovative blind sticks, and wearable devices utilizing facial recognition technology, this review dissects the underlying mechanisms, technologies, challenges, and real-world applications. The investigation reveals the integration of cutting-edge technologies like ultrasonic sensors, IMUs, 3D LIDAR sensors, and GPS into shoe-related devices, promising improved independence and safety. Smart blind sticks equipped with sensors, such as ultrasonic, water, LDR, and GPS, empower users with real-time feedback, enabling them to navigate their environment confidently. Additionally, wearable devices leveraging facial and object recognition hold the potential to revolutionize social interactions and object perception. Through a synthesis of image processing techniques, sensor technologies, and detectors, this paper underscores the importance of technological advancements in enhancing the quality of life for the visually impaired community. As the field evolves, the report concludes by envisioning a future of even more innovative and impactful smart technology solutions that empower visually impaired individuals to navigate the world with increased autonomy and confidence.

Meta-universe is a very hot concept recently in the field of communication engineering, which is a virtual world where people can interact and communicate using VR/AR and other means. Since XR headset is one of the hardware that is crucial to the metaverse for consumers, the rise of metaverse is likely to be the main catalyst for the growth of XR headset shipments in the coming years. Smart glasses are one of them and one of the most promising wearable smart devices in the field of communication engineering. Smart glasses are similar to smartphones with autonomous operating systems that can be installed with software to achieve various functions, such as adding schedules, map navigation, interacting with friends, taking photos and videos, making video calls, etc., and enabling wireless network access through mobile communication networks. With the development of communication technology, smart glasses are also gradually connected with other devices, such as cell phones and tablet PCs, which can share and transmit information through Bluetooth, WI-FI and other communication technologies. In addition, in the field of smart glasses, there are many key technologies that need continuous innovation and breakthrough, such as binocular stereo display technology, human-machine interaction technology, voice recognition technology, etc. The continuous improvement of these technologies will further promote the development of smart glasses.
