Object Recognition play a pivotal role in image processing. Object identification is itself a tedious task as there exist abundant objects which are identical. Vision is one of the most essential senses of the living being, especially a human. The biggest challenging task for a blind person is to move independently without any obstacle. Hence, to recognize an object at various places and scenarios is tough. Visual impairment has been one of the crucial areas of research and as a result a lot of electronic devices and applications have been developed. These devices and applications help blind person to effortlessly identify an object and to take immediate action on the object which is ahead. This paper gives the blueprint of the research and development that has been done for visually impaired people for recognizing objects. The various algorithms or methods that are used in object identification are listed and explained. This paper will have the researchers to know about the latest work that is done in object detection or recognition.

Object Recognition play a pivotal role in image processing. Object identification is itself a tedious task as there exist abundant objects which are identical. Vision is one of the most essential senses of the living being, especially a human. The biggest challenging task for a blind person is to move independently without any obstacle. Hence, to recognize an object at various places and scenarios is tough. Visual impairment has been one of the crucial areas of research and as a result a lot of electronic devices and applications have been developed. These devices and applications help blind person to effortlessly identify an object and to take immediate action on the object which is ahead.
