We propose adaptive power control of an obstacle avoidance system for visually impaired person. It utilizes multiple ultrasonic sensors to detect obstacles lying in the path. We evaluate complex structure in front of the user with predefined patterns and determine avoidance direction by analysing those patterns. It evaluates motion context using built-in accelerometer sensor and estimates acceleration information utilizing hidden Markov model. Our system safely guides visually impaired person as well as adaptively controls power consumption adjusting the number of active ultrasonic sensors.
