Research Abstract |
We have developed CyARM, an equipment to recognize spatial impression, into a new one (F.B.Finger) which conveyed a distance information or light level to a finger. After the evaluation of the experiment with this equipment, it turned out that this had a better capacity in the distance recognition than commercially available device to support walking. We published this result at the international conference (ambient2012) and received the Best Presentation prize. Moreover, we held the darkness exhibition with this equipment, and many visually impaired participated in it. Our exhibition had been reported in a number of newspaper articles.
