Star Trek specs which are helping blind people to see
Briefly

Glasses developed by Vision Technologies help blind individuals by providing verbal commentary about their surroundings. Equipped with tiny cameras, the device identifies objects, reads printed text aloud, and enables users to zoom in on details. The facial-recognition software informs wearers of approaching individuals by stating their names, jobs, and previous meetings. Users can tag images while filming to create a contacts list. The innovative product can recognize various environments such as shop entrances and bus stops, and will cost between £50 to £75 monthly once launched.
The glasses, which contain tiny cameras, can identify everything from shop doorways to the contents of a fridge - giving a verbal commentary through a phone app and earpiece.
Astonishingly, facial-recognition software will instantly tell the user not only the name of an approaching person but their job and date of any previous meeting.
The software, developed by London-based Vision Technologies and sold under the GiveVision brand, instantly analyses a stream of images.
The high-tech glasses can be taught to recognise everything from the entrance and type of shop to bus stops, the number of an approaching bus and any empty seats on it.
