Abstract: This paper introduces a novel assistive device tailored for individuals with visual impairments. The device features real-time text-to-voice conversion, enabling access to printed materials through OCR and TTS technology. Additionally, it incorporates advanced functionalities such as face recognition, object detection, typed text-to-voice conversion, and fall detection. Through innovative hardware and embedded system frameworks, including Raspberry Pi and Raspberry Pi camera, our device offers a comprehensive solution to enhance independence and accessibility for individuals with visual impairments.
