| Research Abstract |
In this paper, we developed and evaluated the visible light communication (VLC) systems for the visually disabled persons' movement assist at signalized intersection or at subway concourse by using the result of many surveys. First, it is found that the guidance accuracy was advanced by improvements Dn the eaves of traffic light, VLC receiver and practice method for users through behavior analysis on subjects. Second, it was developed and analyzed on new VLC system for the visually disabled persons' movement support at subway concourse.
