Video Gaming for the Vision Impaired

Proceedings of the 20th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility, 2018
Mainstream video games are predominantly inaccessible to people with visual impairments (VIPs). We present ongoing research that aims to make such games go beyond accessibility, by making them engaging and enjoyable for visually impaired players. We have built a new interaction toolkit called the Responsive Spatial Audio Cloud (ReSAC), developed around

Robot vision for the visually impaired

2010 IEEE Computer Society Conference on Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition - Workshops, 2010
We present a head-mounted, stereo-vision based navigational assistance device for the visually impaired. The head-mounted design enables our subjects to stand and scan the scene for integrating wide-field information, compared to shoulder or waist-mounted designs in literature which require body rotations.

Localization in impaired spatial vision

Clinical Neurology and Neurosurgery, 1995
The present study provides clear clinico-anatomical evidence for localization of the spatial vision pathway. We report the case of a 29-year-old woman with severe spatial vision impairment. Magnetic resonance imaging revealed distinct bilateral and symmetrical occipito-parietal damage.
