Drishti (दृष्टि) is a live, voice-first vision assistant for blind and low-vision people that runs in a phone browser. Blind users can’t see on-screen buttons, so the app has no menus. After one touch to start, it watches through the camera and uses the phone’s motion sensors and a small view-change detector to decide when to look. When the scene changes and the phone settles, it asks a vision model what is new and speaks a short answer, with hazards first. If nothing new matters, it stays silent. Touching the screen lets the user ask a question or give a voice command: read a medicine label or expiry date, identify an Indian rupee note, describe the surroundings, or switch between English, Hindi and Gujarati.

The problem is personal and everyday. Reading a medicine strip, telling a ₹100 note from a ₹500 note, or knowing what is ahead usually needs another person. Existing tools often need a button press for every question. Drishti is meant to be hands-free. It is an assistant and not a replacement for a white cane or a guide.
