Hello all,
I am low vision legally blind and I am looking for a programmer to create an application. Basically a camera application that can be controlled via the devices hardware buttons, Bluetooth mouse and voice command.
Basically this NuEyes running as an application on the ODG R7 Smartglasses rather than the OS overlay (i think that's the term) that is currently used.
EDIT 20150627: I thought I would add a little more information in here to try and make my stumbling rambles clear. What I am basically looking for is something with the features of Visor that can be controlled using the unused option buttons on the R7's finger mouse and optimally respond to basic voice commands such as "change filter" to rotate through the 3 visual settigns as well as "increase" and "decrease" for magnification. I really love the A Better Camera style interface and would love to include a night vision setting like the one it has as this would be very useful in low light situations to help my night blindness. Please let me know if this is possible, I really need the help coming up with an alternate solution to the extremely expensive NuEyes software package. /EDIT
Being a complete novice I would like to know what would be involved in this application. What would the programmer require from ODG, framework, sample code, ext, and what kind of costs would I be looking at for the initial application and maintenance.
The reason I am asking is though I believe companies have a right to make profits and recoup R&D costs is that the NuEyes system costs about $6000, that works about to about $2K wholesale for the glasses and $4K for the software. I"m just so frustrated by how much every piece of adaptive tech for the blind costs. Every time one of us needs a piece of tech we have to sell our souls to the devil to get it.
