[0031] For examples, please refer to the attached Figure 1-4, a head-mounted electronic guide device for the blind that can identify traffic signals, comprising a cap body 1 and a guide system, an AI large model server 8, wherein the front end of the cap body 1 is provided with a brim 2, the guide system comprises a battery 3 fixedly installed on the rear side of the cap body 1, a guide module 4 fixedly installed in the middle of one side of the cap body 1, a voice module 5 and a GPS module 6 installed on the other side of the cap body 1, a wireless network module 7 fixedly installed on the top of the cap body 1, and an AI large model server 8 set in the cloud;

[0032] The blind guide module 4 is used to capture the state of the surrounding environment and identify key information to determine the road conditions;

[0033] The voice module 5 is used for voice prompts and navigation broadcasts;

[0034] The GPS module 6 is used to perform real-time positioning of the blind guide device and send the current position information to the blind guide module 4;

[0035] The wireless network module 7 is used to send and receive data and realize data interaction with the AI ​​large model server 8.

[0036] Furthermore, the blind-guiding module 4 includes a blind-guiding main control module 401, a blind-guiding camera 403 and a blind-guiding radar 404;

[0037] The blind-guiding main control module 401 is used to process the blind-guiding data transmitted by other modules of the blind-guiding module 4;

[0038] The blind-guiding camera 403 and the blind-guiding radar 404 are used for blind-guiding and identifying obstacles and road conditions.

[0039] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the blind guide camera 403 can recognize the traffic light sign of the crosswalk at the intersection and transmit it to the blind guide main control module 401. The blind guide main control module 401 can determine whether the crosswalk can be passed at present. If it can be passed, it will guide the blind through the voice module 5. When passing through the crosswalk, it can also monitor the movement trajectory of vehicles and other pedestrians in real time. If there is a risk of collision with a vehicle or pedestrian, a warning will be issued through the voice module 5 to ask the blind to stop moving immediately;

[0040] In the case of not crossing the road, it can also detect moving obstacles while walking and can cooperate with the GPS module 6 and the wireless network module 7 for real-time navigation;

[0041] The blind guide radar 404 can identify the depth path during walking and feed back the data of the blind guide camera 403 to the blind guide main control module 401.

[0042] Furthermore, the blind guiding module 4 also includes a power switch 402 for controlling the power on and off of the blind guiding system;

[0043] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, when the blind guide system is not needed, it can be turned off by the power switch 402, thereby saving energy.

[0044] Furthermore, the voice module 5 includes a voice processing component 501, a micro microphone 502 and a micro speaker 503. The micro microphone 502 and the micro speaker 503 are fixed in the outer space of the cap body 1 near the ear area, and the voice processing component 501 is above the micro microphone 502 and the micro speaker 503.

[0045] Furthermore, the wireless network module 7 includes a wireless processing module 701 and a wireless transceiver module 702, and the wireless processing module 701 and the wireless transceiver module 702 are both fixed on the top of the hat body 1, and are used to send data to the AI ​​large model server 8 in the cloud;

[0046] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, since the guide device can be connected to the AI ​​large model server 8 through the wireless network module 7, the AI ​​large model server 8 will combine the positioning of the GPS module 6 and the data collected by the guide camera 403 to provide real-time navigation and broadcast navigation through the micro speaker 503 of the voice module 5. At the same time, the AI ​​large model server 8 will also provide other services, and examples of other services are as follows:

[0047] a. Weather report: if there are sudden weather changes such as rain or snow in the area located by GPS, the AI ​​large model server 8 will transmit the information to the guide main control module 401 through the wireless network module 7, and then process it to remind the blind of the weather change through the micro speaker 503;

[0048] b. Life services. The blind can consult life services through the voice module 5, for example: "Is there a toilet nearby?", "Is there a restaurant nearby?", "Is there a park nearby?", etc. The micro microphone 502 and the voice processing component 501 receive the voice, and the guide device will transmit the voice information to the cloud for recognition and processing, and transmit the information needed by the blind to the guide device and broadcast it to the blind, thereby increasing the travel convenience of the blind.

[0049] Furthermore, the guide system also includes a solar module 9 installed on the top of the brim 2, and the solar module 9 is electrically connected to the battery 3 for converting solar energy into electrical energy and storing it in the battery 3.

[0050] Further, the solar module 9 is a flexible solar panel;

[0051] It should be noted that, in this embodiment, if the blind person is traveling during the day, the solar module 9 on the brim 2 can convert solar energy into electrical energy, and transmit the electrical energy to the storage battery 3 for storage, so as to charge other modules of the blind guide system. At the same time, the storage battery 3 can be connected to an external 220V power supply for charging, so as to ensure the normal operation of the blind guide system.

[0052] Flexible solar panels are light and flexible, so they will not cause pressure on the heads of blind people and are not easily damaged.
