New Smart System Revolutionizes Navigation for Blind Users
A research team from Northern Borders University, in collaboration with the King Salman Center for Disability Research, has developed an innovative navigation system designed to aid blind and visually impaired individuals in moving more independently.
The latest innovation in assistive technology is a smart navigation system developed by researchers at Northern Borders University.
Collaborating with the King Salman Center for Disability Research, the team has successfully created a cutting-edge solution that aims to empower individuals with visual impairments.
The intelligent navigation system primarily utilizes Vision Transformer technology and employs a dual-attention mechanism, which enables it to interpret images and gather detailed information about its surroundings effectively.
This revolutionary system allows users to identify their environment without needing direct assistance, thus enhancing privacy and confidence.
Notably, the system has demonstrated superior accuracy and efficiency in comparison to traditional models, further proving its effectiveness.
Additionally, its compatibility with mobile and smart devices broadens its potential use, making it more accessible to a wider audience.
This project aligns closely with the goals outlined in Saudi Vision 2030, specifically focusing on empowering individuals with disabilities and promoting their inclusion within society.
By providing equal access to education, employment, and mobility opportunities for all, regardless of visual impairments, this system supports sustainable societal development.
