Visually impaired people fail to read the text with existing technology. The proposed project targeted to design a spectacle with a camera by which the blind visually impaired people can read whatever they want to read based on contemporary OCR (optical character recognition) technique and text-to-speech (TTS) engines. This proposed smart reader will read any kind of documents like books, magazines and mobiles. People can access this novel technology with blindness and limited vision. The earlier version of the proposed project was developed successfully with mobile reader which had certain drawbacks such as high cost due to the need of android mobile, not user friendly and improper focusing. To overcome these disadvantages, a spectacle type reader with camera is proposed in this project, which will be cost effective and more efficient.

Recognizing human action in sports is difficult task as various sequences of activities involved in every scene. Identifying each action individually without overlapping of movements is a tedious process due to continuous change of frames within short duration. So proper tracking of human movements for each action is important. Hence new structure-based human action recognition and tracker technique (HART) is proposed. It uses joint trajectory images and visual feature to design each human action. At first, a structural based method employed to extract human skeleton data points from RGB (Red Green Blue) videos. Next, a Multitude Object Tracker (MOT) is proposed which uses the trajectory of human skeleton joints in an image space for identification of actions. Then, Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) combined with Support Vector Machine (SVM) is applied to extract physical body shape and action information. Finally, the action label and interconnected keypoints in humans is jointly detected as end result. The proposed HART technique effectively performed well with the accuracy of about 82% over the other activity recognition methods.
