Image recognition or computer vision is one of the new technologies that works deeply based on artificial intelligence. In computer vision, efforts are made to enable the computer to fully detect the received images with all the details. For example, when an image of a boat is given to the computer, in addition to detecting that it is a boat, it should also identify the type, size, and other information about it. This can be done by machine learning and using a neural system. In this way, a large number of images with different subjects are given to the computer. The computer categorizes these images using different algorithms and identifies their features. Then, by giving an image to the computer, its performance accuracy is measured. If it can correctly categorize the given image into a relevant category of images, it has performed well. Otherwise, a computer expert determines the category of the given image, and the computer can learn new features by examining new images and improve itself with repetition of this process. Google is one of the largest companies in the world and has a vast collection of data. Using this huge amount of data and Google’s cloud processing system, extraordinary image detection services can be created. Today, we have an application called Lookout developed by Google LLC for Android operating system, which is a camera-based object detection application designed to help visually impaired individuals and is available for free on Google Play. With this app, you can point your phone’s camera at anything and the phone can accurately detect and name it. People with visual impairments can easily buy things, read different texts, or find out about objects around them with this app. Lookout is available for devices with Android 5 and above, including Google Pixel; Samsung S6, S7, S8, S9, S10; LG G7, G8.

Some features and capabilities of the Lookout Android app:

  • Usable for detecting everything; objects, text, and ….
  • Has different modes for detecting the surrounding environment, shopping, or reading texts.
  • Rapid detection of viewed items and saying their names.
  • Designed for users with visual impairments.

The Lookout application is an excellent tool to help the visually impaired and people with visual impairments detect their surrounding environment, which has received an excellent rating of 4.7 out of 5.0 from Android users. You can now download the original, complete, and ad-free version of this program with all its features and capabilities for free from Farsroid.io.
