Abstract

This paper explores the challenges faced by blind individuals in accessing online content and introduces an innovative virtual assistant designed to bridge the accessibility gap for the visually impaired. Traditional tools like screen readers and refreshable braille displays are critiqued for their limitations in providing a natural and efficient browsing experience. The proposed solution addresses these shortcomings by offering features such as voice navigation, effective image description using AI, live interaction with auditory cues, contextual understanding through NLP and ML, personalization options, and seamless integration with braille hardware. Through groundbreaking implementation and a user-centric approach, this solution revolutionizes the digital experience for individuals with disabilities, setting new standards for accessibility and inclusivity in technology.
