Engineering solutions have involved in everyone's life ,most importantly are those aiming to help people with disabilities ,however, the modern assistance devices with their current prices are not meeting the requirements of the market. This project is mainly focusing on people with visual impairments and more specifically their education life. It is presenting a concept of smart glasses to provide assistance in multiple tasks represented as modes to be chosen by the user. To prove the concept, this project implements only one mode which is reading using text detection techniques. Smart spectacles or smart glasses are wearable smart glasses that add information along side to what user sees. Alternatively, smart glasses are sometimes defined as wearable computer glasses that are able to change their optical properties at run time. Smart sun glasses which are programmed to change tint by electronic means these are an Example of the latter type of smart glasses. Superimposing information onto a field of view is achieved through an optical head- mounted display (OHMD) or embedded wire less glasses with transparent heads-up display (HUD) or augmented reality (AR) overlay. Smart glasses are may collect information from internal or external sensors. It may control or retrieve data from other instruments or computers.
