The National Cancer Institute (NCI), Nagpur, is extremely proud and pleased to inform that its Biomedical Engineer Ekramul Haque has been officially given the Copyright for his project “Smart Goggles for Visually Impaired Individuals”.
Haque’s work has been registered under Copyright (Certificate No. LD-20250173355, Date of ROC: 04/09/2025) with the Registrar of Copyrights, Government of India.
The project is an AI-based wearable assistive device designed to support visually impaired persons. The smart goggles integrate a USB camera with computer vision, face recognition, and object detection.
With the help of the smart goggles, a visually impaired person can identify the individuals who come across him/her. This is made possible by way of the matching of images that are stored in the data base of the goggles. The objects can also be detected with distance measurement. The user can seek real-time assistance through voice announcements through Bluetooth headset, and can also detect moving vehicles along with speed alerts for safety.
Haque said that his innovation was aimed to enhance independent mobility and safety for the visually challenged community by providing real-time situational awareness.
