Nanodesktop Blind Assistant Launches
Heralding a new era of utility homebrew, underground developer pegasus2000 has made public the first release of his CFW0005 version of Nanodesktop Blind Assistant. We saw some concept videos of this cutting-edge software a few weeks ago, and now we have the opportunity to get our hands on the application for the first time.
Take a look at this feature list:
- a face recognition engine, that can recognize the names of the people that are present in the room (and the position in the screen), using PentLand algorithm. Our version of the algorithm uses VFPU to speed up the computations.
- a room recognizer, that can recognize the room in which the blind is, through a x86 server (BlindServer) and the SIFT (Scalar Image Feature Transform) algorithm.
- a optical char recognition engine, that can read to the blind a text that is grabbed by the camera
- a colour scanner, that is able to say to the blind what is the average color of the image that is grabbed by the camera in that moment. This is useful for the blind for recognizing the color of an object that is in front of it
- a mail reader, that can read the mail that the blind receives from a POP3 server.
Blind Assistant is a terrific project and just the kind of thing that we’re excited to see coming out of the homebrew circuit. We’re grateful to pegasus2000 for his steady work.
