ICSee (for visual impairments)

ICSee (I Can See) is a specialized Chrome extension designed to assist individuals with severe visual impairments by enhancing real-time camera images. It uses advanced filters powered by OpenCV to improve contrast, focus, and visibility of objects and text, enabling users to better read menus, signs, receipts, and identify items more clearly.

Key features include eight customizable filters, the ability to freeze and zoom on captured images, and an auditory interface offering tutorials and audio feedback in English or Greek. ICSee operates entirely offline, ensuring privacy and accessibility anytime without internet dependency. This open source project by SciFY NPO is tailored for people with low vision, emphasizing ease of use without surveillance capabilities. It is recommended to have assistance initially for optimal user experience.
