Smart Glasses for the visually impaired

Opportunity

People who are visually impaired face significant challenges; they’re excluded from information and face many difficulties interacting comfortably with their environment. There’s a great need for assisted technology for the visually disabled!

 

 

Solution

The smart glasses empower the visually impaired by telling them what’s in front of them. They no longer need to ask for assistance; the smart glasses gives them the independence they wished for! The smart glasses can recognize objects, read text, detect obstacles and speak to the wearer using artificial intelligence (AI).  It can be designed in such a way to look like normal glasses with a small smart camera on the side and earphones to speak to the user. The glasses can help the wearer find and differentiate between things easily. By simply pointing at an object the glasses will recognize the user’s gesture and tell them what the object is by reading the label for instance.
