摘要

The presented design is a visual comprehension system for the blind. It consists of special glasses with 3d cameras and software that converts spatial and visual information into sound or tactile signals that are understandable to the blind. The signals can be synthesized sound that allows to identify shapes and locate them in space. This allows perceiving volumes and spaces, in addition to an unprecedented level of detail. The use of cochlear headphones or sound or touch signals allow long sessions of use, without interfering with the ear. In the case of sound, it is preferably non-verbal, which eliminates the language barrier and facilitates learning. (Machine-translation by Google Translate, not legally binding)
