Sight Buddy

An open-source Android assistive-vision app for blind and low-vision users, with local object detection, OCR and speech recognition.

WHAT IT IS

Sight Buddy lets users point a phone camera at the world to hear descriptions, read printed text, find objects and identify colours or lighting. Many features run on-device; optional AI features use the user's own API key. The project was open-sourced together with a post-mortem.
