Dear Jetson Community,

I am excited to share my recent post about Image Captioning for the Visually Impaired and Blind People. As a researcher and developer, I have been working on developing innovative solutions to help the visually impaired and blind people to navigate the world around them.

With the recent advancements in computer vision and natural language processing, we can now use image captioning techniques to describe images to the visually impaired and blind people. This can be a game-changer for their daily lives and help them to gain a better understanding of their surroundings.

In my post, I have shared my experience of developing an image captioning model using the NVIDIA Jetson platform. I have also shared some insights into the challenges and opportunities in this field. I hope that this post will be useful for anyone who is interested in developing assistive technologies for the visually impaired and blind people.

Best regards,

Hi @ebohan, no problem at all! I just implemented another project for visually impaired and blind people. I couldn’t have done it without the incredible work of @dusty_nv. His local_llm(jetson-containers/packages/llm/local_llm at master · dusty-nv/jetson-containers · GitHub) project was invaluable, which made my implementation possible. All credit goes to him!
