Use Cases For the Blind
- Object Recognition and Scene Understanding: Application leverages Sambanova AImodels to identify objects within an image, understand their relationships (e.g., “a cat sitting on a mat”), and describe the overall scene. This provides a textual description that a blind person can listen to or read. These descriptions can be quite detailed, specifying colors, sizes, and positions of objects, locations etc
- Real-time Image Environmental Description: Application leverages Sambanova AI to process images from a phone’s camera in real-time, providing immediate descriptions of the environment. This is particularly useful for navigation for the blind and visually impaired individuals.
