- Description
- It is still recognized as a challenge task while blind and visually impaired people travel outdoor independently, even if there are a number of assistive mobility aids available. From the field of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and Accessibility, the dissertation focuses on enhancing blind people's capabilities of acquisition of spatial environmental information from tactile pin-matrix displays. The spatial environmental information, in this study, is in terms of clusters of surrounding obstacles, geographic information on city maps, and information on environmental accessibility.
