An efficient application has been developed to detect close obstacles using a single smartphone camera and give speech information to vision impaired people. The proposed algorithm uses a simple technique aimed at measuring the local estimated image defocussing to roughly estimate its closeness to the camera. Preliminary results of the developing system are presented.

Abstract
An efficient application has been developed to detect close obstacles using a single smartphone camera and give speech information to vision impaired people. The proposed algorithm uses a simple technique aimed at measuring the local estimated image defocussing to roughly estimate its closeness to the camera.
