Abstract:
This is a computer vision based project that aims to help a blind person find
her/his location in indoor environment. The blind person is equipped with a
mobile phone that consists of a camera, a speaker as well as the stand-alone
localization application. The map of the indoor environments is described
by a set of images. The localization is performed by extracting a feature
from the image of the unknown location and comparing it the features of
the environment. The feature which has the nearest distance to that of the
novel image is considered and a voice massage is sent the blind person with
the location information. Color histogram is proposed as the image feature.
The project is developed using C++ under Symbian OS. The simulation was
performed in a supermarket and the results show a success rate of 98% and
a cycle duration of 2 seconds
