Abstract
The objective of this paper is to presents new design on assistive smart glasses for visually impaired. The objective is to assist in multiple daily tasks using the advantage of wearable design format. The proposed method is a camera based assistive text reading to help to blind in person in reading the text present on the text labels, printed notes and products in their own respective languages. It combines the concept of Optical Character Recognition (OCR), text to Speech Synthesizer (TTS) and translator in Raspberry pi. Optical character recognition (OCR) is the identification of printed characters using photoelectric devices and computer software. It converts images of typed, handwritten or printed text into machine encoded text from scanned document or from subtitle text superimposed on an image. Text-to-Speech conversion is a method that scans and reads any language letters and numbers that are in the image using OCR technique and then translates it into any desired language and at last it gives audio output of the translated text. The audio output is heard through the raspberry pi's audio jack using speakers or earphones.
