The wider the area of the blind, the more difficult it will be for them to carry out the activities carried out. This study aims to develop a tool that can be used to detect obstacles for blind people. This tool was developed with Arduino nano because of its small size, so it does not interfere with their activities and power consumption against the speed of low command execution. This tool is also developed using a proximity sensor (SRF-04), and GPS Tracking is a remote monitoring system that uses GPS Satellites as a determinant of the location of vehicles/assets to move accurately and accurately in the form of coordinates. The tool will be designed according to the needs of the blind so that they use feel safe and comfortable so that it is designed with feeling and the position of the sensor with the layout needed, based on the results of testing the blind visual aid to function correctly if objects are detected by proximity sensor and tool does not work if this tool is to identify holes because the sensor used is a distance sensor with a distance of 0 - 60 CM and GPS tracking can read the position of the user well with the position on latitude: 0.555698 and longitude: 123.056655.
