Idea

This week I'm thinking about ideas for my final project, just putting things together. Need to narrow it down.

Smart Glasses Kit​

Idea is to make a smart glasses kit that attaches to normal glasses. It’ll have camera, small screen, mic, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi. Idea is to display info, take voice commands, and connect wirelessly, making life easier.

Features​

  • Clip-on Design - Can attach/detach easily.
  • Small Display - OLED screen for notifications, messages, other data. Like MiniTV.
  • Camera - Take pictures, video, maybe AI recognition.
  • Voice Control - Hands-free interaction.
  • Wireless - Sync via Bluetooth/Wi-Fi.
  • Gesture Control - Maybe add sensors for simple interactions.

XIAO ESP32S3 is a small board that can handle voice, gesture, and other controls. It can connect to the display module and other sensors.

  • Connect to AI server for voice and image recognition.
  • Connect to app via Bluetooth/Wi-Fi.
  • Display info on OLED screen.

Camera Module​

I will use OV2640 camera module, which is small and can take pictures, video. It can connect to the control module.

It takes pictures continuously, and sends them to the AI server for recognition.

Display Module​

OLED screen attaches to glasses, showing basic info like:​

  • Messages, notifications
  • Navigation help
  • Live subtitles (maybe even translation)
  • Health data (if sensors added)

Inspired by MiniTV, keeping it compact.

  • Visually impaired - Could integrate voice help, subtitles.
  • Fitness fans - Track steps, heart rate, etc.
  • Travelers - Help with maps, translations on the go.
