1. An auditory interaction system comprising:
- a device interface configured to receive a digital image of an object from a mobile device; and
a device-based processing platform coupled with the device interface and configured to;
obtain the digital image via the device interface;
recognize the object as a target object of interest to a visually impaired person;
identify an address associated with the target object; and
cause a mobile device to produce an audio signal associated with the object based on the address.

39. A method of auditory interaction comprising the steps of:
-
providing access to a processing server; receiving, from a mobile device, a digital image of an object; recognizing, by the processing server, at least one object from the digital image as a target object of interest to a visually impaired person; identifying, by the processing server, an address associated with the object; and causing, by the processing server, the mobile device to produce an audio signal associated with the object based on the address. - View Dependent Claims (40, 41, 42, 43, 44, 45, 46, 47, 48, 49, 50, 51)
