Outline of Final Research Achievements |
This research aimed to develop a system for the high-precision, wide-area collection, analysis, and output of barrier information. In the first year, we implemented input methods, conducted deep learning analysis, and performed basic studies on heatmaps and VR methods. Despite delays in the second year due to COVID-19, we achieved the implementation of an integrated system and additional input methods. In the third year, we developed a collection platform and an Android application, improving the visualization and VR simulation. In the fourth year, we refined the heatmap and VR methods based on user needs and conducted field experiments. In the fifth year, we made system improvements, conducted further field experiments, and engaged in social contribution activities, ultimately releasing a barrier-free map. These efforts resulted in the publication of seven papers in peer-reviewed journals and ten presentations at international conferences.

Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements |
本研究の学術的意義は,画像AI・行動分析AI・ゲーミフィケーションを組み合わせたバリアフリーマップ作成の新規性にある.これにより,国内外のバリアフリー研究,都市工学,社会福祉学,社会心理学等,工学分野だけでなく社会科学分野にも影響を与えることが期待される.特に,都市空間のバリア情報の収集・分析・可視化は,安全な環境作りの基盤に関する研究の発展に寄与する. 社会的意義は,障害者・高齢者等に対して,バリアフリーマップを提供することで,彼らの安全な生活と社会参加を後押しできることにある.また,施設管理者や自治体にとっては,問題点把握や改善優先度の決定が容易になり,効率的な施設運営が可能となる.
