Drshtee Initiatives

Our initiatives aim to empower visually impaired, hearing and speech impaired, and physically challenged individuals through technology, innovation, and community action.

Visually Impaired

Drshtee’s initiatives for the visually impaired include community-led Spectacles Donation drives, curated Audio Books for learning and leisure, and Eye Care camps offering screenings and referrals for treatment. Through AI for Eye research, we explore computer vision tools for early detection of eye conditions—blending grassroots action with innovation to restore sight and independence.

  • Spectacles Donation: Community drives to fit and distribute low-cost spectacles to children and elders.
  • Audio Books: Curated audio-books for learners and leisure; volunteers can narrate or proof-listen.
  • Eye Care: Screening camps and referrals to local clinics for corrective surgery and treatment.
  • AI for Eye: Research projects using computer vision to detect eye conditions early.

Our Smart Assisted Technologies projects explore affordable robotics and sensor-based solutions, ensuring that innovation and compassion go hand-in-hand to empower those with mobility challenges.
