Re: [AI] IIT Kanpur designs smart watch for the blind
Agree with ajay but there are a few affordable watches too, on the Android side at least and we do not yet know the cost of this product so debating its affordability is perhaps too early. On the other side, Asif sir is also right; Stakeholder should be consulted prior to understanding problem statement and reaching for a solution. Best, Satguru.
