CNN based Smart Activity Recognition for Elderly and Physically Disabled

Abstract

Knowledge and expertise are essential components of a fulfilling life, contributing significantly to well-being. However, there is a marginalized group of individuals who face challenges in achieving a peaceful and inspired existence. These individuals, particularly those with physical disabilities such as blindness and deafness, encounter significant difficulties when navigating the world on their own. Each problem they encounter requires careful consideration and tailored solutions.The concept of the clever assistive expedient aims to alleviate the struggles faced by physically impaired individuals, providing them with a sense of confidence and independence. The primary goal is to empower them to recognize and navigate their surroundings. The planned expedient, SARD (Sensory Augmented Reality Device), achieves this by capturing images and translating them into auditory information. Additionally, it identifies complications and provides comprehensive counsel for individuals facing challenges. In essence, the SARD is designed to be a support system for the physically impaired, utilizing technology to enhance their understanding of the world and addressing obstacles they may encounter. Through these advancements, the aim is to make their lives more manageable and foster a sense of self-assurance and independence.
