Many Days into the Development : Training new Custom YOLO Model
Just found out about HackClub and YSWS Programmes.
I began working on some new custom YOLO object detection model. I curated a dataset focused on stairs, elevators, and road signs — common structures that visually impaired individuals often need help identifying in real-world environments.
This model will eventually power BlindSight’s real-time detection system, helping users recognize and safely interact with their surroundings. By improving the accuracy of obstacle and structure recognition, I aim to make the device more context-aware and reliable for daily use.
Super excited to see where this goes from here!
