Abstract

Vision is an integral aspect of human life. A blindness caused due to natural or accidental way stands as a major hindrance in progress of individual. It is of utmost importance to provide the significant help to blind individual for navigation and take informed decision. Several attempts have been made to design system that are helpful in multiple ways to the visually-impaired individuals. Recently, surge in artificial intelligence field have opened new avenues for the advanced research. This paper systematically high- lights the work done in the field. This paper can act as a good starting point for the researcher. It also identifies the gaps and suggests few possible remedies that can help blinds. It focuses on the mobile application made for the assistance of the blind individuals. It summarizes the real time test results and the timing information of the application when detecting the surrounding objects.
