Low Vision

Background information on living with a disability

Here you will find a number of other interesting summative documents that do not deal with the DeveloperSpace topic (access to ICT), but provide a more spherical view of other aspects of disability.

Turn Right: Analysis of Rotation Errors in Turn-by-Turn Navigation for Individuals with Visual Impairments

D. Ahmetovic, U. Oh, S. Mascetti, C. Asakawa

This work studies rotation errors and their effect on turn-by-turn guidance for individuals with visual impairments to inform the design of navigation assistance in real-world scenarios. A dataset of indoor trajectories of 11 blind participants using NavCog, a turn-by-turn smartphone navigation assistant, was collected.

ORBIT: A Real-World Few-Shot Dataset for Teachable Object Recognition

D. Massiceti, L. Zintgraf, J. Bronskill, L. Theodorou, M. Harris, E. Cutrell, C. Morrison, K. Hofmann, S. Stumpf

This dataset is a collection of videos of objects recorded by people who are blind/low-vision on their mobile phones to drive research in Teachable Object Recognisers (TORs) under few-shot, high-variation conditions. Collectors recorded and submitted videos to the ORBIT benchmark dataset via an accessible iOS app.
