Guiding the visually impaired through the environment with beacons
Guiding the visually impaired through the environment with beacons
Samenvatting
Urban environments are full of noise and obstacles, and therefore potentially dangerous and difficult to navigate for the visually impaired. Using Bluetooth beacons and a smartphone app we guide them through these environments by providing the information needed for that specific location. We present the preliminary results concerning the usability of our approach.
