My innovation: Utilizing the smartphone app "TapTapSee", blind users are able to receive a voice description of what they've taken a picture of. This can help them identify their surroundings, read things, and also learn. However, the description provided to the user must be non subjective, and totally descriptive. For example, if a blind person has a can of food and wants it identified for them, they take a picture of it and it's uploaded to someone like me, but if they've taken the picture from the wrong angle and only gotten the side of the can, I cannot completely identify the can. Instead of being direct and telling them to turn the can and try again, I must describe the image from the original angle as best I can. So if there's a side image of a blue can, then I must say "Side view of a blue can", however telling the user to rotate the can so I can read the information on the can and relay it to them is prohibited, so this is my rationale for my idea to implement a direct and subjective(if needed) message to the user.
