چکیده
Google Glass provides a unique platform for low vision aids. We have implemented an augmented vision enhancement with Glass, by overlaying enhanced edge information over wearer’s real world view. Contrast enhanced central vision can be naturally scanned over the ambient scene.

An augmented-reality edge enhancement application for Google Glass.
PURPOSE Google Glass provides a platform that can be easily extended to include a vision enhancement tool. We have implemented an augmented vision system on Glass, which overlays enhanced edge information over the wearer's real-world view, to provide contrast-improved central vision to the Glass wearers. The enhanced central vision can be naturally integrated with scanning. METHODS Google Gla...
متن کاملFeasibility of Augmented Reality in Clinical Simulations: Using Google Glass With Manikins
BACKGROUND Studies show that students who use fidelity-based simulation technology perform better and have higher retention rates than peers who learn in traditional paper-based training. Augmented reality is increasingly being used as a teaching and learning tool in a continual effort to make simulations more realistic for students. OBJECTIVE The aim of this project was to assess the feasibi...
متن کاملA Quantitative Investigation on the Effect of Edge Enhancement for Improving Visual Acuity at Different Levels of Contrast
Background: The major limitation in human vision is refractive error. Auxiliary equipment and methods for these people are not always available. In addition, limited range of accommodation in adult people when switching from a far point to a near point is not simply possible. In this paper, we are looking for solutions to use the facilities of digital image processing and displaying to improve ...
متن کاملSimulation of Color Blindness and a Proposal for Using Google Glass as Color-correcting Tool
The human visual color response is driven by specialized cells called cones, which exist in three types, viz. R, G, and B. Software is developed to simulate how color images are displayed for different types of color blindness. Specified the default color deficiency associated with a user, it generates a preview of the rainbow (in the visible range, from red to violet) and shows up, side by sid...
متن کاملA reconfigurable real-time morphological system for augmented vision
There is a significant number of visually impaired individuals who suffer sensitivity loss to high spatial frequencies, for whom current optical devices are limited in degree of visual aid and practical application. Digital image and video processing offers a variety of effective visual enhancement methods that can be utilised to obtain a practical augmented vision head-mounted display device. ...
