The blind people are suffering from living a normal life because of
their loss of sight, but with the help of artificial intelligence, machine
learning, and computer vision, combination of all previous science smart
help to produce glasses with Arabic language that designed to help blind,
to live a life as a normal person through the glasses.
The glasses were provided with an object detection and Face
recognition features that determines the surrounding environment and
faces, also can detect distance between persons and objects . Through
blind from theft through coin recognition, glasses recognize the currencies
that use Yolo5 algorithm. The glasses can scan and read any image text
and translate the entire text from Arabic to English or vice versa then
convert it into audio. The glasses enable the person to search the Internet
through the Wikipedia library and can play any media from YouTube.

The integration of artificial intelligence (AI) in glasses for visually  impaired individuals represents a groundbreaking technology that aims to
improve their quality of life and enhance their independence. This
documentation explores the innovative features of AI-powered glasses,
focusing on their role in assisting blind people in various aspects of daily
life. Key functionalities include object recognition, navigation assistance,
text-to-speech conversion, and real-time scene description. By leveraging
AI's advanced capabilities, these glasses have the potential to
revolutionize the way visually impaired individuals interact with the
world, providing them with greater autonomy and access to vital
information.
 Artificial intelligence technology is advancing rapidly every day,
improving other aspects of the lives of people with disabilities, the elderly,
the visually impaired and other people who need care. To help these
people, machines must understand senses on their own. Our AI researchers
and experts try to make the devices or machines real. Soon, machines will
be able to understand the senses without human intervention and will be
able to solve problems due to the existence of the feedback store in the
database.
 Smart glasses were created based on artificial intelligence,
computer vision, machine learning, and some sensors to check on it. The
blind can make video calls and send voice notes via messenger application
to help him communicate with his family and know his location and the
places he visits, as it was created to solve most of the problems of blind
people and make his life easier. Face recognition on people, Read the texts
