Abstract
An eyewear device with camera-based compensation that improves the user experience for user's having partial blindness or complete blindness. The camera-based compensation determines objects, converts determined objects to text, and then converts the text to audio that is indicative of the objects and that is perceptible to the eyewear user. The camera-based compensation may use a region-based convolutional neural network (RCNN) to generate a feature map including text that is indicative of objects in images captured by a camera. Relevant text of the feature map is then processed through a text to speech algorithm featuring a natural language processor to generate audio indicative of the objects in the processed images.
