Color detector for color-blind

Project attribution: Project done in a multi-disciplinary team along side Hriday Govind, Ellen Oudshoorn, Marco van Rooijen and Hugo Heller.
Source: Source code is not available.
Short description: Ergonomic color detector for visually impaired users that verbally announces object colors via a speaker.
Technologies: Arduino, standard electronics (color detector, voltage booster, speaker, button).
What I did: I designed and implemented the electronic circuit and I programmed the microcontroller.

The project took us from ideation to implementation of a color detection device for the visually impaired. An Arduino microcontroller uses a color sensor to detect color and then a speaker let’s the user know what color is detected.

Testing of the color sensor.
Full circuit of the device including: the Arduino, a speaker, an MP3 driver, a battery, a voltage booster, a button and a battery.
All the components soldered and placed in the casing.
The casing's 3D model.
The closed casing where the color sensor, the speaker and the button are visible.
