MySmartEye is a mobile app that crowdsources vision and care for the visually handicapped by connecting them to a community of micro-volunteers. Using in-built iOS and Android accessibility features, a visually handicapped individual can easily take a picture of anything with just a touch. The image is then shared with micro-volunteers in real-time as a query. The volunteers can describe the image, from wherever they are, making volunteering easy, effortless and instant. The replies are then converted from text to speech for the visually handicapped.
