Article Description

The eyeRoad application is designed to address the unique challenges faced by visually impaired individuals in navigating their daily lives. Vision impairment significantly impacts an individual's ability to independently access information, travel safely, and engage with the world around them. eyeRoad aims to bridge this accessibility gap by harnessing the power of modern technology and leveraging the capabilities of smartphones. The app employs state-of-the-art machine learning and computer vision algorithms to offer real-time environmental analysis, object recognition, and voice-guided navigation, thereby enhancing mobility and independence. It utilizes the smartphone's camera and sensors to provide audible feedback, allowing users to identify objects, obstacles, and landmarks in their immediate vicinity. The eyeRoad also integrates seamlessly with existing mapping and public transportation services, enabling users to plan routes, access public transportation schedules, and receive step-by-step navigation instructions. The app's user-friendly interface and intuitive design cater to the diverse needs and preferences of visually impaired individuals, making it a valuable tool for enhancing their quality of life.
