Abstract

In a world where visual information dominates, individuals with visual impairments face significant challenges in comprehending and traversing their surroundings independently. Tasks such as interpreting their environment, identifying faces, and navigating obstacles present formidable obstacles. Addressing these challenges is crucial to improving the daily lives of visually impaired individuals. “Vision Assist for the Visually Impaired” introduces an innovative solution that seamlessly integrates facial recognition and obstacle detection technologies. Departing from conventional wearability, this approach allows the device to be discreetly integrated into the user's routine, either slipped into a pocket or clipped onto clothing. Leveraging the capabilities of Raspberry Pi, users can train the system with facial images and corresponding names for personalized audio output upon detecting familiar faces. Concurrently, ultrasonic sensors detect obstacles in real-time, providing audio feedback on their proximity to ensure safe navigation.
