🌿 EcoVision AI — Accessibility-First Waste Segregation Powered by Gemma + Ollama

39 million blind people worldwide cannot independently identify the correct waste bin for disposal. Most waste segregation systems rely on colors, labels, and visual interfaces — creating a major accessibility and dignity gap for visually impaired communities.

EcoVision AI solves this problem using real-time AI-powered waste detection and voice-guided assistance.

Built with YOLOv8n, FastAPI, React, Gemma, and Ollama, the system detects waste items through a webcam, classifies them into Wet, Dry, Recyclable, or Hazardous categories, and instantly speaks disposal guidance aloud using accessible AI-generated responses.

♿ Designed specifically for visually impaired users:
• Full keyboard navigation
• Screen reader support (WCAG 2.1 AA)
• Voice commands
• High contrast mode
• Adjustable speech speed
• Offline functionality

🤖 Powered by Gemma via Ollama:
We built a custom accessibility-focused prompting system optimized for text-to-speech guidance. Gemma generates short, clear, human-friendly disposal instructions in real time — completely locally and privately.

🌍 Why this matters:
Correct waste segregation reduces landfill contamination, improves recycling efficiency, and prevents hazardous waste risks. For blind users, independently identifying the correct disposal bin is a daily challenge that existing systems ignore.

EcoVision AI combines Digital Equity, Accessibility, Sustainability, and Offline AI into one real-world solution designed for communities often excluded from technology innovation.
