**Notiefy** is a currency detection app for the visually impaired which had a really basic UI, so that the app can be easily and quickly used. The app opens up with a camera with a large button in the bottom-middle for the blind person to click the image easily, and the application would process the image and with the help of artificial intelligence, it would classify what currency-note it is with the help of a computer-generated audio. It also says the total amount of money it has been shown to the camera because the speaker had mentioned that also as a difficulty, when the person has a bunch notes to count. The app, time being works only for Indian currency notes.
2. ABSTRACT
The main objective of our program is to detect the value a
currency note holds. We made it for the visually impaired to
recognise these currency notes as they could be easily cheated
by other people.
3. PROBLEM STATEMENT
The existing apps for currency recognition for the
visually-impaired have really complicated user interface and people are better off
without them. Also asking to other people during this covid-19 outbreak is highly
risky, excluding the risk that the "other" person here was a part of the "cheater's" alibi.
Hence we decided to build a mobile application which was easy to use and fast and
accurate too, so that they can be more safe out in public and have a better life in the
world.
