The blind see with PSP

by Edwin

psp-blind-see.jpgWhile the PSP is an excellent portable gaming device, its thriving homebrew scene makes it all the more attractive. Italy’s Filippo Battaglia has released the Nanodesktop Blind Assistant that uses its webcam to identify and locate people within a room. This code is still proof-of-concept and currently relies on a PC to serve images, but developers have already promised that the next version will be “official” and “fully working”. Will someone be able to make a homebrew program for the DS Lite that enables deaf folks to “hear”?

Wow a PSP that really delivers! Can’t wait for the ds lite to handle the same!
