Project Details
Description
The project focuses on the development of an innovative version of smart glasses specifically designed for both blind and visually impaired individuals. The glasses will integrate a magnifying display using advanced camera technology and AI to enhance the user experience. The project addresses the critical need for assistive technology that meets the diverse needs of visually impaired individuals. By incorporating a magnification feature, the smart glasses will fill a significant gap in existing solutions that primarily assist blind users without catering to those with low vision.
