The problem trinetra solves

Problem

Visually impaired people face many challenges in their day to day life which are very convenient for others. As they might say, sidewalks can be the most dangerous of places. One of the consequences of vision loss is being uncomfortable about safety while moving around or travelling independently. Safe navigation on sidewalks is the most important requirement.

Solution Proposed

In order to solve this, we can develop hardware as well as a software solution.

• Trinetra headband: Raspberry Pi embedded with Tensorflow to detect objects in the surroundings.
• A simple Web Application which uses the device in your hand, a smartphone to read your surroundings for you. We implemented it just in case if people somehow can’t access our hardware.

Tech Stack Used

We will be using, OR have used:

• Raspberry Pi 4B module for ML Model training and deployment
• Pi Cam is a feasible option to capture images
• Lipo battery is lightweight and easily chargeable

For Web-App

• ReactJS
• TensorFlow 2.0
• react-WebCam
• CocoSSD
