Abstract

In this digital Age with the help of our cognitive abilities, we can see, hear and sense various new technologies and can communicate with them but this is not the case for visually impaired people In order for them to communicate with the world they need assistive technology and adaptive devices. The key idea of the project involves helping the sight challenged people. The Proposal of the project involves capturing an image with the help of a camera, recognizing it and extracting the content in the image using various data algorithmic techniques. With the help of this model people with blindness can be more independent with confidence. The major step in making this project a reality is to obtain images from the real world and recognize them with little to no latency and convert them into audio files that can be played. This can be executed out with the help of Open CV and Raspberry pi the main usage of the latter is its portability and compatibility which can be achieved with the use of battery backup functionality which can also be used for future endeavors. The size of the Raspberry pi soc permits the user to carry it anywhere and use it.
