Design of Wearable Device for Visually Impaired People using Image Processing

This paper presents the design of a compact wearable device for visually impaired individuals. It features facial recognition to identify friends and relatives with real-time database updating. Additionally, it includes image-to-speech and optical character recognition (OCR) for converting visual information into audible formats. The device aims to enhance selfsufficiency and spatial cognition through advanced image processing. By integrating cutting-edge functionalities like facial recognition and OCR, it seeks to empower users, promoting greater autonomy and inclusion in daily activities.
