Crosswalk Guidance System for the Blind [PDF]

open access: yes2020 42nd Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine & Biology Society (EMBC), 2020
Street crossing can be a significant challenge for visually impaired people, limiting their mobility especially in urban environments. To date, there are few solutions for this significant problem. Current approaches for guiding blind pedestrians in crosswalks have mainly focused on detection of crosswalks and crosswalk signals.
