Virtual-Blind-Road Following-Based Wearable Navigation Device for Blind People

Abstract: To help the blind people walk to the destination efficiently and safely in indoor environment, a novel wearable navigation device is presented in this paper. The locating, way-finding, route following and obstacle avoiding modules are the essential components in a navigation system, while it remains a challenging task to consider obstacle avoiding during route following, as the indoor environment is complex, changeable and possibly with dynamic objects. To address this issue, we propose a novel scheme which ut… Show more

“…It should be remembered that ICT or IoT is no longer as a classroom laptop, a projector, or a tablet; at the moment, they are other emerging technology mechanisms for the classroom; such as, skills in data mining, mobile learning (Bai, Lian, Liu, Wang, y Liu, 2018), (Chen, Member, Su, Chen, y Chang, 2019), (Man, 2014), pedagogical innovation based on ICT, web tools for E-Learning (Wei, 2014), gamification and simulation (Muttaqin y Suwandi, 2011), virtual learning (Riyanto & Zhang, 2013), educational research, educational neuroscience, education 4.0, leading educational innovation projects (Rizal y Wan, 2013), education and social development among others are important to know.…”

“…Visually impaired people usually asked white canes or guide dogs for help when detecting obstacles over the past years. However, they may still suffer injuries from hanging obstacles, such as scaffoldings and portable ladders, as white canes and guide dogs can only detect obstacles at heights up to their chests [4], [5]. Recently, Electronic Travel Aids (ETAs) [6] utilizing advanced sensing techniques have greatly improved the travelling experience of visually impaired people.…”

“…Recently, Electronic Travel Aids (ETAs) [6] utilizing advanced sensing techniques have greatly improved the travelling experience of visually impaired people. However, the ultrasonic sensor based ETAs are poor at obstacle identification due to the wide beam angle of ultrasonic sensors, and the laser sensors based ETAs are expensive, heavy and have high power consumption, which make them unsuitable for wearable applications [4], [7] based [8], stereo camera based [9], [10] and Red, Green, Blue and Depth (RGB-D) camera based [11], [12]) have been widely used for assisting visually impaired people to avoid obstacles and find obstacle-free paths, some problems still exist. For example, a chair may be considered as an obstacle when a blind person is looking for a seat, or no path will be found to enter a room with closed doors.…”
