Smart Glasses for Blind Using Text-To-Speech

Smart glasses for blind are a promising technology that can help blind people to read and interact with the real world in a very convenient manner. This paper will explain the development of the text-to-speech prototype. This project of ours is able to convert any text into audible speech which is transmitted to the earphones allowing the blind person hear the text conversion. In this paper, we have discussed various components of our prototype. For example, text identifying libraries, camera modules, speech synthesizing models and basic hardware are required to run all this in an efficient way. We have also carried out a survey with a small number of blind people for analysis of the prototype. According to the feedback, we also made changes in the prototype.
