22.4: Invited Paper: Augmented Vision Head-Mounted Systems for Vision Impairments
نویسندگان
چکیده
We have developed, implemented and tested a novel concept of vision-multiplexing using augmented vision systems for people with vision impairments. Minified contour images from a head-mounted, miniature video camera are presented on a see-through display providing visual field expansion while still enabling the full resolution of the residual central vision to be maintained.

Computer vision-based registration techniques for augmented reality
Augmented reality is a term used to describe systems in which computer-generated information is superimposed on top of the real world; for example, through the use of a see-through head-mounted display. A human user of such a system could still see and interact with the real world, but have valuable additional information, such as descriptions of important features or instructions for performin...
متن کاملApplications of Augmented Vision Head-Mounted Systems in Vision Rehabilitation.
Vision loss typically affects either the wide peripheral vision (important for mobility), or central vision (important for seeing details). Traditional optical visual aids usually recover the lost visual function, but at a high cost for the remaining visual function. We have developed a novel concept of vision-multiplexing using augmented vision head-mounted display systems to address vision lo...
متن کاملComparison of Different Targets Used in Augmented Reality Applications in Ubiquitous GIS
Drilling requires accurate information about locations of underground infrastructures or it can cause serious damages. Augmented Reality (AR) as a technology in Ubiquitous GIS (UBIGIS) can be used to visualize underground infrastructures on smartphones. Since smartphone’s sensors do not provide such accuracy, another approaches should be applied. Vision based computer vision systems are well kn...
متن کاملEvaluation of an Augmented Reality Supported Picking System Under Practical Conditions
Order picking is one of the most important process steps in logistics. Because of their flexibility, human beings cannot be replaced by machines. But if workers, in order, picking systems are equipped with a head-mounted display, Augmented Reality can improve the information visualization. In this paper, the development of such a system—called Pick-by-Vision—is presented. The system is evaluate...
متن کاملHead-mounted mobility aid for low vision using scene classification techniques
This paper describes a new mobility aid for people with severe visual impairments which combines technology from the field of virtual reality with advanced computer vision techniques. A neural-network classifier is used to identify objects in images from a head mounted camera so that scene content specifically important for mobility may be made more visible. Enhanced images are displayed to the...
