Abstract—This paper presents a groundbreaking development in assistive innovation through the improvement of visionary smart glasses custom-made for people with visual impedances. These smart glasses are equipped with a Raspberry Pi Camera module designed to capture images of printed materials such as daily papers, books, and other objects of interest. The captured visual information is then handled through advanced optical character recognition (OCR) technology, changing over it into text. Hence, the text information is consistently transformed into audible content using text-to-speech (TTS), which the user can tune in to through an associated headset.The main objective of these visionary smart glasses is to enable the visually challenged by giving real-time access to printed materials and improving their ability to independently engage with composed data. Furthermore, these smart glasses incorporate a second module outlined for cash reading, permitting users to precisely distinguish and manage distinctive categories of currency. This dual-functionality aims to extend availability and independence, subsequently cultivating more prominent inclusivity and quality of life for individuals with visual impairments.The advancement of these visionary smart glasses represents a critical step towards bridging the data gap that frequently hinders the visually challenged community. By consistently converting printed materials into audio and empowering quick and reliable cash identification, these inventive smart glasses are poised to revolutionise the way people with visual disabilities interact with their environment, eventually enhancing their freedom and overall well-being.
