摘要
In this paper an indoor aid to assist and to guide blind people exploring an unfamiliar structured environment is proposed. The system developed aims to lead the visual impaired to reach a specified destination suggesting him the path to walk avoiding obstacles and hazards and notifying the presence of services along the path. Main advantages of the system developed, as respect to the State of the Art, are the continuous monitoring of users position in the environment, the optimized redundancy of information to be provided to the user, the high reconfigurability, the poor demanding installation and the adaptive level of assistance to be provided to the user on the basis of his/her needs, ability and skills.
