The AI Cane project is designed to help visually impaired individuals navigate their surroundings more safely and independently. The project combines artificial intelligence, machine learning, object recognition, and assistive hardware to identify nearby objects and communicate useful information to the user through audio feedback.
The AI Cane focuses on developing an affordable AI/ML-based image classification system to integrate into a walking cane. The system is intended to detect objects near the user, process the visual information, and provide feedback using text-to-speech so the user can better understand the surrounding scene
