In this paper we present innovative computer vision solutions to support social inclusion of totally blind people. We present the overall framework architecture and we focus on intelligent computer vision system applied to support Instrumental Activities of Daily Living (IADL). Results of the proposed intelligent computer vision system are reported and presented on the basis of sample real-life scenarios.
