Inspiration
I built this project to help those people who're blind by providing them with a tech-assistant who'd always guide them about what they are going to encounter and who are present in their current surrounding
What it does
Vocal object detector detects around 70+ objects and voices it out to alert/inform about the current happenings.
How we built it
I built it using only Python
Challenges we ran into
The main challenge that I faced to build this project is to make the machine understand what to capture and what to ignore. For eg, if there's a fly then there is no need of making an announcement about it.
Accomplishments that I'm proud of
I'm proud of the end-product that I finally came up with as it is a well working model.
What I learned
I learned that whatever difficulties we may come across can be solved by sheer determination. At times I was feeling really tired as I'm a sophomore and I've my labs going and I'm also doing an internship, so managing time for all the kinds of stuff was a real challenge for me. Time management proved to be really helpful.
What's next for Vocal Object Detection
I'll try to interface the software into glasses so that it becomes handy.
