    RME Team VIEW Secures First Place in In-Progress Category at Spring 2024 College Design Expo

    Team Members:
    Thomas Wommack, Andrew Langston, Arlan Gibson, Santiago Romero, and Jalen Kruse

    Advisors:
    Dr. Tanveer and Dr. Guerra

    RME Team VIEW has made significant strides, clinching the top spot in the In-
    Progress Category during the first session of the Spring 2024 college senior
    capstone competition. The project enhances the mobility and independence of
    visually impaired individuals. It integrates multiple sensors, including video
    cameras, Lidar sensors, and onboard haptics and speakers, to comprehensively
    scan, process, and navigate the user through their environment. It also incorporates
    advanced text recognition capabilities, leveraging its cameras to read aloud text
    within the user's surroundings.
    Congratulations to RME Team VIEW for their remarkable progress and achievement!
