According to the present invention, for an independent walking guide device for the visually impaired, which is worn by a person who is visually impaired and voice guides a traveling path to the destination to enable an independent walking, the device comprises: a walking environment information obtaining module (100) comprising a camera unit (111, 112) which captures a front image of a walking direction and obtains a walking image, a GPS receiving unit (121, 122) which receives GPS signals for a current location of the visually impaired, and an inertial sensor unit (131, 132) which senses walking motions of the visually impaired； and a walking environment information processing module (200) signal-connected to the walking environment information obtaining module (100) to receive walking environment information including the walking image, the GPS signals and sensing signals, using map data containing locations of pre-set landmarks and received walking environment information to recognize a current location, a traveling state of the visually impaired and landmarks located in the front, and providing voice guidance information for a traveling path to a required destination. The camera unit can be switched to a general camera and a non-light source camera, and the non-light source camera comprises: a multi sensor camera board which supports a plurality of image sensors； and a software imaging framework which is a standardized technology integrating one or more imaging technologies among cameral controls, motion controls, lighting controls, an optical analysis and image processing.본 발명에 따르면, 시각장애인의 신체에 착용되어 독립보행이 가능하도록 목적지까지의 이동경로를 음성안내하는 시각장애인용 독립보행 안내장치에 있어서, 보행방향의 전방이미지를 촬영하여 보행영상을 획득하는 카메라부(111,112)와, 시각장애인의 현재위치에 대한 GPS신호를 수신하는 GPS수신부(121,122) 및, 시각장애인의 보행움직임을 감지하는 관성센서부(131,132)를 포함하는 보행환경정보 획득모듈(100)； 및 상기 보행환경정보 획득모듈(100)과 신호연결되어 상기 보행영상, GPS신호 및 감지신호를 포함하는 보행환경정보를 수신하고, 기설정된 랜드마크의 위치가 포함된 맵데이터와 수신된 보행환경정보를 이용하여 시각장애인의 현재위치, 이동상태 및 전방에 위치한 랜드마크를 인식하면서 요청된 목적지까지
