Comment

Inspiration

Seeing people in the community who suffer from some visual impairment and the difficulty they have in carrying out activities

What it does

Plays audios that contain information about supermarket products as well as instructions to guide you

How we built it

We use a development card as our brain of the project, which communicates with an RFID reader module and this reads the tags that will be placed in the halls and depending on the content of this will be the audio that will be extracted from the database.

Challenges we ran into

establish communication with the SPI protocol between the development card and the RFID reader and learn how to use the raspbian interface

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Having created a potential solution that can help many people and create real change in the community

What we learned

We learned to use a completely new operating system and many of the functionalities of the raspberry, such as its internal registers, as well as learning to program radio frequency tags.

What's next for SGB

Implement it in all supermarkets, in addition to implementing many improvements and optimizing its design, in addition to exploiting its use and configuring it for new spaces.
