Popis: In this work we describe main features of software modules developed for Android smartphones that are dedicated for the blind users. The main module can recognise and match scanned objects to a database of objects., e.g. food or medicine containers. The two other modules are capable of detecting major colours and locate direction of the maximum brightness regions in the captured scenes. We conclude the paper with a short summary of the tests of the software aiding activities of daily living of a blind user.
