| Zusammenfassung: | In this paper, we propose a novel approach in assistive devices for visually impaired people, named Virtual Eye. The idea is to allow the blind person to feel the world around him in a form of a 3D textured map in a handheld device, and move/react accordingly. To realize this idea, three technologies are to be integrated, Project Tango by Google, E-sense by Senseg, and RFID. We envision that Virtual Eye will get the world in the hands of the blind people, and hence, improve the quality of their life. |
