Deep Learning-Based Positioning of Visually Impaired People in Indoor Environments.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
Wayfinding and navigation can present substantial challenges to visually impaired (VI) people. Some of the significant aspects of these challenges arise from the difficulty of knowing the location of a moving person with enough accuracy. Positioning ...

Fuzzy-Based Approach Using IoT Devices for Smart Home to Assist Blind People for Navigation.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The demand of devices for safe mobility of blind people is increasing with advancement in wireless communication. Artificial intelligent devices with multiple input and output methods are used for reliable data estimation based on maximum probability...

Object Identification and Safe Route Recommendation Based on Human Flow for the Visually Impaired.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
It is difficult for visually impaired people to move indoors and outdoors. In 2018, world health organization (WHO) reported that there were about 253 million people around the world who were moderately visually impaired in distance vision. A navigat...

Object detection and recognition: using deep learning to assist the visually impaired.

Disability and rehabilitation. Assistive technology
BACKGROUND: Deep learning systems have improved performance of devices through more accurate object detection in a significant number of areas, for medical aid in general, and also for navigational aids for the visually impaired. Systems addressing d...

Discrimination of the behavioural dynamics of visually impaired infants via deep learning.

Nature biomedical engineering
Sensory loss is associated with behavioural changes, but how behavioural dynamics change when a sensory modality is impaired remains unclear. Here, by recording under a designed standardized scenario, the behavioural phenotypes of 4,196 infants who e...

Stereo Vision Based Sensory Substitution for the Visually Impaired.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The development of computer vision based systems dedicated to help visually impaired people to perceive the environment, to orientate and navigate has been the main research subject of many works in the recent years. A significant ensemble of resourc...

Fuzzy Logic Type-2 Based Wireless Indoor Localization System for Navigation of Visually Impaired People in Buildings.

Sensors (Basel, Switzerland)
The ability to precisely locate and navigate a partially impaired or a blind person within a building is increasingly important for a wide variety of public safety and localization services. In this paper, we explore indoor localization algorithms us...

Image processing strategies based on saliency segmentation for object recognition under simulated prosthetic vision.

Artificial intelligence in medicine
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: Current retinal prostheses can only generate low-resolution visual percepts constituted of limited phosphenes which are elicited by an electrode array and with uncontrollable color and restricted grayscale. Under this visual...

Artificial intelligence-powered smart vision glasses for the visually impaired.

Indian journal of ophthalmology
PURPOSE: In India, 4.80 million people are blind, and 4.69 million have severe visual impairment. Globally, the digital era and the advent of artificial intelligence devices offer solutions for daily challenges faced by the visually impaired, but the...
