devices with the latest technology to help them sort out who they were facing. But they didn't accept this idea since when they meet someone,they know his or her identity just from the sound of their footsteps". The blind people they talked to revealed that there are just four simple activities that they have problems with: sorting out banknotes, identifying colours, checking the lights, and reading barcodes. So the team incorporated these functions into their Visionear. The tiny camera installed in the headset above the eartakes pictures of things that are sent to the data processing unit in a separate small box before outputting the information in voice form to the blind. "My school was opposite the Government Lottery Office and I noticed the blind lottery sellers counting money so fast. They didn't seem to have any problem sorthing banknotes," said Dear. "But the blind I talked to said the lottery sellers that I saw made up less than one some mobile applications to helpthem, butonly the world's most widely used currencies are provided and they are all in English." Visionear's second feature can tell the blind what colour is in front of them. Ther are also several moblie applications for this, but the colours provided are too many. They give around 360 shades of colour. "The blind only need to know the basic colour. For example, blue-not navy blue,sea blue," said Nick The third feature was quite beyond our expectaions. The blind need the gadget to help them check whether the lights in the room are turned on or off, otherwise they would end up paying higher electricity bills. The Visionear camera focuses on the room-the light. If there is a spot, it means the light is turned on. The last feature that is perhaps the highlight of the device is its ability to read barcodes. Barcodes contain the product's details so this function is very useful for the blind when going shopping Unlike other barcode-reading applications provided on smart phones and talets, Visionear is more convenient for the blind who can't see where the barode is on the package. They just need to scroll the product around in front of the camers and the barcode will be detected automatically before being cropped and sent to the data processing unit to analyse the product information: The team hopes the Visionear innovation will not disappear like many previous winning projects. "We are trying to run it as a social enterprise so Visionear will reach the main target group of the blind ," said Palm.
