Real-Time Image Detection With Braille Output
This project focuses on developing an innovative assistive device designed to enhance navigation for deaf-blind individuals across various environments. The device utilizes an integrated camera module, such as those found in laptops or phones, for real-time object recognition. A compact Braille display, driven by solenoids, provides immediate tactile feedback upon recognizing common objects like bottles, persons, and cell phones through advanced image processing algorithms. A dedicated mobile application facilitates object recognition, text extraction, and translation into tactile Braille output using custom code. This tactile feedback empowers users with enhanced spatial awareness and navigation capabilities, promoting greater independence and safety in everyday surroundings. By integrating cutting-edge technology with inclusive design principles, the project aims to meet the unique accessibility needs of the deaf-blind community effectively.
