DriveAssist

Inspiration

I wanted to create a REST API for foreigners to be familair with US traffic signs.

What it does

It reads traffic signs and gives their meanings in the native language of those foreigners.

How we built it

We used google vision api to identify traffic signs in images, along with their bounding boxes. Then used resemblejs to map them with our signs database. Next we translated their meanings to other preferred languages.

Challenges we ran into

Handling multipart/form-data COnfiguring google-cloud

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We made our first RESTAPI

What we learned

Lot about node, angular and cloud products.

What's next for DriveAssist

Mobile client to capture online videos and translate.
