Abstract

In this paper, we present two support systems for the visually impaired using a digital camera. One of them is the support system for their daily activities. When a visually impaired person needs help, he takes a photograph of the scene around him and transmits the photograph using a portable telephone to his supporter. Then he can get the proper advice from his supporter. Another is a portable traveling support system. Using image processing by a portable computer, the visually impaired can obtain useful information such as the walking direction and landmarks to travel to his destination.
