Smart Navigation to Assist Blind People for Object Detection (original) (raw)

Vision is one of the very essential human senses and it plays the major role in human perception aboutsurrounding environment. The traditional and oldest mobility aids for persons with visual impairments are the walking cane (also called white cane or stick) and guide dogs. The most important drawbacks of these aids are necessary skills and training phase, range of motion and very little information conveyed. With the rapid advances of modern technology, both in hardware and software front have brought potential to provide intelligent navigation and language capabilities. In proposed system we use camera to capture the image then the image will be processed to extract the features of the object using two algorithms. The simulation results using SIFT algorithm and the SOBEL algorithm is used to extract edge key points matching showed good accuracy for detecting objects. Object detection deals with extracting embedded details, patterns and their relationship in images. The captured im...
