An Electronic DIGI White Cane for the Visually-Impaired Personnel
摘要
Humans take in information about our surroundings via our five senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch, with vision accounting for roughly 75% of our total information intake. A variety of technologies are designed to help and support blind and visually-impaired (BVI) residents on indoor and outdoor journeys. However, these technologies have not fully addressed the technological requirements and user demands. The majority of these unaddressed features are being addressed individually in other research disciplines, such as computation offloading, distributed sensing, or indoor location, to investigate spatial-related cognitive and perceptual processes in BVI persons. The proposed system’s framework involves the study of the frequently referred to term “cognitive mapping” for better assisting the movement of blind or visually-impaired individuals. To conduct research on smart gadgets for the blind and visually-impaired and suggest a suitable strategy. Blind visually-impaired individuals require specialised systems such as the Braille System for reading and writing. They also find it difficult to use the latest technology like mobile phones and computers unless certain adjustments are made to help them. The development of intelligent devices will significantly improve their standard of living. Many smart gadgets have been created that use optical character recognition and text-to-speech to convert written or printed text into audio signals. All such gadgets have many disadvantages.
