Abstract
Visually impaired human beings face many demanding situations of their day by day lives. As conscientious members of society, it is our solemn duty to assist them in leading lives akin to ours, harnessing the potential of cutting-edge technologies such as AI-driven Computer Vision. To address this, we present an ingenious solution: AIoT-powered smart specs. These remarkable spectacles are designed to illuminate the lives of the visually impaired by harnessing their heightened perceptual capabilities to gather information from their surroundings. This Artificial Intelligence of Things (AIoT)-enabled smart specs possesses the remarkable ability to perform real-time currency recognition, character detection, object identification etc. The smart glass includes integrated cameras and sensors to capture text, images, and frames. The result is generated in vocal form, leveraging the sophisticated operations of Convolution and Recurrent Neural Networks.
