The sight impaired face a slew of challenges when it comes to getting around. The only options they have are a draconian era walking staff and a guiding dog, both of which have severe drawbacks. The downsides of using a walking stick include the fact that it is unwieldy and does not allow the user to move around with much fluidity. It also becomes a hindrance when the roads the user is travelling on are unevenly laid out and have cracks and potholes, among other things. The guide dogs on the other hand are expensive and difficult to maintain. As a result, we want to provide a cost-effective and intelligent solution to this problem by offering 'A-eye,' a wearable smart glass. For the blind in contemporary culture, this is a convenient, cost-effective, and technologically advanced choice. In a nutshell, the 'A-eye' smart glasses will have a camera mounted on the device's frame that will continuously watch items in front of the user, as well as an IR sensor to determine the distance between the object and the user. These observations will be turned to voice to allow the user to move around with more ease.
