摘要：The limitations vision that possessed by the visually impaired in interacting with their environment, causing them to have difficulties in doing traveling. But, along with the development of smartphone technology, the visually impaired people began using smartphones to help them engage in any activities. Estimote beacons are a small device that broadcast a Bluetooth signal that can be captured by a smartphone. This research contributions to provide the information to the visually impaired person in order to have easy use compatible with the smartphone since the Estimote beacons are used as a location awareness device to give the information about the surrounding environment. The systems were configured and programmed using android studio for indoor and outdoor locations. Based on the indoor result testing, it can be stated that the implementation of the Estimote beacon as a location awareness in indoor area, must be focused on the installation of the Estimote beacons. The installation must be set smoothly and the broadcast signal should not be overlap. The outdoor result testing indicates that the Estimote beacon signal is stable to receive on the smartphone at a distance 0 � 31.64 meters, begin unstable at a distance of 38.61 meter and become undetected at a distance of 79.79 meters.
