Abstract Background Most mobile pharmaceutical applications produced for people with visual disabilities in Thailand fail to meet the required standard due to poor-quality regulations, defective design, lack of user support and impracticality; as a result, visually-impaired people are unable to use them. This research is motivated by the limited use of this technology in primary medical services and its aim is to enable people with disabilities to access effective digital health information. The research objective is to analyse, design and develop a mobile pharmaceutical application with functions that are appropriate for visually-impaired users, and test its usability. Results Based on the design and development of the application, it contained five necessary functions. When testing the usability and users’ satisfaction, it was found that the input or fill of information in the application was of low usability. According to the test results, the medicinal database function was missing 71 times and the voice command function was missing 34 times. Based on users’ satisfaction results, users who had the highest level of usage gave higher average scores to users’ attitude, users’ confidence, user interface and system performance than those with lower levels of usage. The scores of both groups were found to be the same when discussing the implementation of the development. Conclusions This mobile application, which was developed based on the use of smart technology, will play an important role in supporting visually-impaired people in Thailand by enhancing the efficacy of self-care. The design and development of the application will ensure the suitability of many functions for visually-impaired users. However, despite the high functional capacity of the application, the gap in healthcare services between the general public and disabled groups will still exist if users have inadequate IT skills.

Autonomous travel is a notable test for visually impaired people and furthermore the expanding accessibility of cost proficiency, superior and versatile advanced imaging gadgets has made a gigantic open door for enhancing conventional checking for record picture securing. We propose a camera based visual help system utilizing raspberry pi for content perusing, movement of items and the sentiments of outwardly hindered people face various challenges to play out their everyday errand. They are absolutely or halfway subject to somebody for help. Their issues have made them to lose their would like to live in this contending society. They look for help from others to control them entire day. This paper expects to make the outwardly debilitated individual completely autonomous in all perspectives. The proposed framework depends on a virtual eye, which conveys to the outside encompassing through a camera. The camera goes about as a consistent wellspring of data to the framework. The information is gotten through the camera. They got signals from the information gadgets are dissected utilizing picture handling in LABVIEW and it reacts to the outwardly debilitated individual through discourse preparing units. The handled data about environmental factors will be educated through the speaker (yield unit) by which outwardly weakened individuals can move and make their work effectively all alone. Also the outwardly weakened individual can naturally control a portion of the home apparatuses like fan utilizing remote correspondence framework.
