MyEyes-automatic combination system of clothing parts to blind people: First insights

The technology world for visually impaired people has evolved over the past few years, making their day-to-day life more functional. However, there are still gaps such as in the area of aesthetics and visual image that need to be more explored. Thus, this article describes the first validation in the development of a Web platform in aid of the combination of clothing for blindness people. This project uses NFC (Near Field Communication) technology for the identification of the clothes. At the moment the clothes characteristics of the blind people are inserted manually but in the future one intends to use algorithms of automatic insertion, resorting to the image processing and machine learning. The first perceptions about the project were promising.
