| Research Abstract |
It is necessary to consider the visual performance and mobility problems of people with low vision . But it is not clear that the way people with low vision receives mobility information from vision and other sensation. In this paper, we analyzed impacts of visual performance to information for mobility in people with low vision . It is cleared that visual performance has influenced use of auditory and tactile information ,and has not influenced use of visual information. Visual information is important for people with low vision, it is effective to offer visual information at terminals.
