Abstract: A virtual assistant is a software agent that can perform tasks or services for an individual. Sometimes the term "chatbot" is used to refer to virtual assistants generally or specifically those accessed by online chat. Virtual Assistant (VA) is a term that applies to computer-simulated environments that can simulate physical presence in places in the real world, as well as in imaginary worlds. This report discusses ways in which new technology could be harnessed to create an intelligent Virtual Personal Assistant (VPA) with a focus on user-based information. This project is a technical brief on Virtual Assistant technology and its opportunities and challenges in different areas. The project focuses on virtual assistant types and structural elements of a virtual assistant system. In this project, we tried to study virtual Environment and virtual Assistant Interfaces, and the paper presents applications of virtual assistant that helps in providing opportunities for humanity in various domains. This project also describes the challenges of applying virtual Assistant technology. In today's advanced hi-tech world, the need of independent living is recognized in case of visually impaired people who are facing main problem of social restrictiveness. They suffer in strange surroundings without any manual aid. Visual information is the basis for most tasks, so visually impaired people are at disadvantage because necessary information about the surrounding environment is not available. With the recent advances in inclusive technology, it is possible to extend the support given to people with visual impairment.
