Emergency exit signs are crucial during misfortunate events such as fire, earthquakes or even human caused events such as robbery and, bombing. However, these signs are of no use to the visually impaired people. During emergency scenarios, the blind people need to rely on other individuals and sometimes they may even be left helpless. This raises a need for some assistive device that could benefit the visually impaired people during the time of emergency. In this paper, we propose a concept of smart glasses that could be tremendously beneficial to the blind people. These glasses will have camera and headphone speakers embedded to them. The device will be capable of detecting emergency signs using modern deep learning techniques during the times of need and could notify the user regarding the direction where the exit is.
