Inspiration: To help blind people around us (as one time I was traveling in a public bus, a blind person is requesting everyone's help in getting off from the bus, though everyone helped but I think make them dependent is also an inspiration).

What it does: Help blind people's to navigate around their surroundings.

How we built it: Some code in Kotlin, A lot usage of copilot, AI api's, and here it is.

To see the full journey of development navigate to the https://github.com/knightafter/Blind-Nav-Android-App-for-Blind-persons link and read the read me file.

Challenges we ran into: My app currently features three primary modes: Navigation, Assistant, and Reading. I have successfully implemented the Navigation and Assistant modes as per my design.

However, in the Reading mode, I'm facing a challenge. I'm aiming for a seamless experience where a new picture is captured automatically upon each double-click, followed by an immediate resumption of the reading process. Currently, the user needs to manually exit and re-enter the Reading mode to capture another image.

Since the app is currently in beta, I'm confident that we can address this issue and enhance the user experience."

Accomplishments that we're proud of: Making the impact even its small.

What we learned: A lot like in term of ethical; I understand that what I can do with this programming, if in terms of skills; still a lot as I understand the concepts that how to send and communicate with the api, which now helps me in complex projects.

What's next for BlindNav: More advertising, take to more people, increase mouth of word just it.
