Abstract:

This paper describes an Android mobile phone application designed for blind or visually impaired people. The main aim of this system is to create an automatic text- reading assistant using the hardware capabilities of a mobile phone associated with innovative algorithms. The Android platform was chosen for people who already have a mobile phone and do not need to buy new hardware. Four key technologies are required: camera capture, text detection, speech synthesis, and voice detection. Moreover, a voice recognition subsystem has been created that meets the needs of blind users, allowing them t

Abstract:

This study aims to provide an overview of visually impaired cyclists’ difficulties with independent cycling in the Netherlands. Normally sighted cyclists ( n = 109) and visually impaired cyclists ( n = 197) and former cyclists ( n = 22) completed an online questionnaire on potential cycling difficulties related to visual function, bicycle control, and contextual factors. The former cyclists were asked to what extent these difficulties were crucial for them to stop cycling. Overall, the visually impaired cyclists reported having most difficulties with light–dark transitions, crossing intersecti

Abstract:

<strong>There are about 2.2 billion people with vision impairment or blindness. There are a lot of challenges faced by these blind people in their data to day life. One of the greatest challenges being a physical movement. Blind people need continuous help from other sighted individuals. They find it difficult to move around in high traffic areas or any unfamiliar places. Visually impaired people memorize the area while moving around in familiar places and they also memorize where the things are kept. However, those things if moved to some other place might again cause issues for blind people.

Aims The aim of this study was to investigate health literacy and self-care among visually impaired people with type 1 diabetes in Denmark. Methods Survey data from 1425 Danes with type 1 diabetes were categorised in two groups according to visual status: visually impaired ( n = 38) and sighted ( n = 1387). Using the Health Literacy Questionnaire and the Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities Scale, health literacy and self-care activities were assessed. Visually impaired respondents were compared to sighted respondents using t-tests and chi-squared tests. Results Visually impaired people we

Abstract:

Electronic mobility aid, transforms visual information to another sensory modality, has proved to be useful for visually impaired people to commute confidently and independently. With recent developments in technology, more visual information can be provided that can assist the user in the better way to avoid obstacles. The paper is focused on portable mobility aid prototype based on stereo imaging that can help user avoid collision with the obstacles. The algorithm is based on segmentation of disparity image to detect obstacles in each segment and identify probable path free of obstacles. The

Abstract:

We developed navigation system prototype for the visually impaired using LED lights. Where LED lights emit visible light with location data and a smartphone or blind person's stick with a visible light receiver receives the data. The controller with receiver calculates the optimal path to a designation and speaks to the visually impaired through a headphone or turns stick left or right with the help of motor. The prototype is able to navigate the visually impaired users fairly well with speech guidance. We believe that the application of visible light communication belongs to location base

Abstract:

Abstract— The navigation of visually impaired individuals remains a significant challenge due to the lack of effective, real-time assistance systems. Current solutions primarily rely on basic aids such as guide dogs or cane-based methods, which do not provide dynamic, adaptive navigation support. This paper proposes an AI-based navigation system that enhances mobility for visually impaired individuals by integrating real-time object detection and text-to-speech (TTS) feedback. The system employs the YOLOv5 object detection model to recognize obstacles and dangers, while Google Text-to-Speech (

Abstract:

Eyes play important role in our day to day lives and are perhaps the most valuable gift we have. This world is visible to us because we are blessed with eyesight. But there are some people who lag this ability of visualizing these things. Due to this, they will undergo a lot of troubles o move comfortably in public places. Hence, wearable device should design for such visual impaired people. A smart shoe is wearable system design to provide directional information to visually impaired people. To provide smart and sensible navigation guidance to visually impaired people, the system has great po

Introduction: To support independent travel skills and accessibility for people with visual impairments (i.e., those who are blind or have low vision), this research acknowledges bus driver perceptions of visual impairment and investigates how bus drivers interact with visually impaired travelers who ride public transportation. Methods: This study utilized the Social Responsibility about Blindness Scale and a researcher-created instrument to explore how bus drivers interact with visually impaired travelers. Results: Fifty-five drivers participated in this study, with 94.55% of these drivers re

Abstract:

Purpose – The paper addresses the importance of clarifying terminology such as visually impaired and related terms before embarking on accessibility studies of electronic information resources in library contexts. Apart from briefly defining accessibility, the paper attempts to address the lack of in-depth definitions of terms such as visually impaired, blind, partially sighted, etc. that has been noted in the literature indexed by two major Library and Information Science (LIS) databases. The purpose of this paper is to offer a basis for selecting participants in studies of accessibility of e

Abstract:

The visually handicapped have a difficult time getting by in a world that is mostly intended for sighted people. Even seemingly simple things like locating obstacles, traversing new places, and keeping spatial awareness can be difficult for them and frequently impede their freedom and movement. Their sense of dependence and loneliness are exacerbated by the absence of real-time support and systems catered to their individual needs, which exacerbates these challenges. Smart glasses are made especially for those who are blind or visually impaired to address these issues. These smart glasses use

Abstract:

AbstractQuality of life (QOL) is associated with factors such as health, physical functioning, life satisfaction, a sense of happiness, and others. In case of disabled people, much attention is paid to their QOL rather than only the improvement of physiological variables. In a group of blind and visually impaired people, the effect of physical activity (PA) on the socialization process, the ability to explore own personality traits, developing creativity, and more motivation and desire to overcome the difficulties associated with visual impairment were observed.
