Abstract:
Humans do require a lot of communication. When there is interaction between normal people and blind people, communication can be difficult at certain points. This program facilitates communication between blind persons and the rest of the world. Numerous programs are available in the marketplace to help blind people interact with the outside world. To reach the blind, voice mail and chat programs are available. This program allows a person who is blind or has a visual impairment to purchase a product at a supermarket or grocery store using a scanner to scan the barcode of the product. It helps blind people get information on packaged foods and their descriptions. To use this system, you only need to take a photo of the object.
