Abstract
Today’s world is a cluster of elegant creations made by God and men. Most of us are lucky enough to experience those wonders. It is not the same with the ones who cannot experience these mysteries, who cannot feel or make a visual of what is in front of them. It’s a challenge to survive in this world without sight. The blind have to manage without even being able to make a proper shape and picture of what’s in front of them. If technology can come to their aid, it would be a boon. This paper focuses on using deep learning to help the visually impaired draw an image in their minds using spectacles with a built in camera, which narrates the visuals or happenings around them through voice. This smart spectacles acts as the sixth sense for visually challenged people through which they can lead an independent life.
