Abstract: Our eyes are undoubtedly the most precious gift we have and play a significant part in our daily life. We are fortunate to have sight, so we can see this world. However, some individuals struggle to visualize these things. Because of this, moving around in strange public settings presents several difficulties for those with vision impairment. 39 million individuals are blind and 246 have limited vision, making up the estimated 285 million visually impaired persons globally. Wearable technology should be created with these people's visual impairments in mind. Smart shoes are a wearabl

Television is an important means of obtaining information and sharing in the culture of this society. Because it is primarily a visual medium, blind and visually impaired people have not had full access to it. In 1990, after five years of research and development, a national service became available over the Public Broadcasting Service that makes television accessible to blind and visually impaired viewers. Developed by WGBH-TV in Boston, Descriptive Video Servicesm provides narrated descriptions of the key visual elements of television programs without interfering with their audio or dialogue

The aim of this research is to increase the independence and mobility of visually impaired people by developing a real-time object and person recognition system. This system uses the power of machine learning and uses computer vision techniques to accurately identify and classify objects and people in the user's environment.

People who are visually handicapped or blind rely on others to get from one place to another. In metropolitan settings, various systems are utilized to tell blind people of the direction of their travel. The majority of navigation systems dedicated to guiding the blind are voice-based. However, due to the tremendous noise produced by heavy traffic in urban locations, voice information is unreliable. It drastically reduces perception of commands generated by the blind person&#39;s ear buds. This study describes the invention of a vibrotactile approach for guiding a visually impaired person in m

The inability to use features such as sending and reading of email, schedule management, pathfinding or outdoor navigation, and reading SMS is a disadvantage for blind people in many professional and educational situations. Speech or text analysis can help improve support for visually-impaired people. Users can speak a command to perform a task. The spoken command will be interpreted by the Speech Recognition Engine (SRE)
