Real Time Barcode Scanning without Eye Contact on Smartphones

Abstract

Abstract: This research is designed to make life easier for visually impaired people. It is a camera-based system that scans the barcode on the back of the image and uses the ID stored in the barcode to display the model of the product. This will help visually impaired people see the contents of the market so they can buy packaged products. This is because blind people have a hard time distinguishing between grocery stores. To use this technology, users simply have to capture the image of the product on their phone and then identify the barcode; that means it scans the image to find the ID to hide. So this app is really helpful for blind and visually impaired people to do their job of identifying things easily It is very easy to use and inexpensive as it requires a scanner to scan the barcode and a phone camera to capture the image containing the image of the barcode. This is now very easy to do as most modern phones have a solution to scan the barcode to identify the ID stored inside and read the description of the goods. This program is usually available in all shops, department stores, bookstores, pharmacies, etc.
