Vysion

A smart device to help the visually impaired detect what is in front of them.

Vysion

Uses a mobile phone's IP webcam, scrapes for an image, uses Clarifai API and Google Vision for object/text recognition, sorts by level of confidence, and auditorially outputs the result.

The current prototype uses a phone attached to an open GearVR, but the goal for the final product is a seamless, sleek pair of spectacles with a built-in camera. This won the Wolfram Alpha Prize at Electric City Hacks
