Abstract
VisuAid is an innovative and inclusive assistive solution designed to address the challenges faced by individuals with visual impairments. It utilizes advanced technologies in Computer Vision, Digital Image Processing, and Deep Learning to enable users to access written and digital content seamlessly and gain real-time insights into their surroundings. The application features real-time text recognition, object detection, and audio output capabilities, empowering users to navigate their environments independently and confidently.
VisuAid also provides an idea of smart glasses to promote mobility and accessibility for visually impaired people. These advanced assistive technologies come with obstacle detection that alerts the user to near objects, staircase navigation to ensure the safe crossing of multi-level areas, and pothole detection to avoid accidents from irregular surface conditions. The smart glasses, with their primary emphasis on real-time functionality and user comfort, aim to fit seamlessly into every individual's daily routine without compromising on safety and convenience.
