Smartphone-based audio white cane for the blind

This project involved the design and implementation of a real-time mobile application that makes use of the rear camera of a smartphone to provide appropriate sounds to help guide and warn a blind user during dangerous situations. Real-time computer vision algorithms were created to process the live...
