Objetivo
We are proposing to develop a powerful technology that will give the sight-impaired a detailed view of their environment through a sophisticated imaging system displaying on a tactile interface. The system will require no special environmental adaptations and will be totally non-obtrusive. The user should be able to participate in a similar way to sighted persons in normal activities without any special and discriminatory recognition. The technology will enable both depth representation and 2D contrast imaging with the additional functionalities of Braille and alphanumeric outputs of signage, and mobile text messaging. The miniaturised imaging elements will be integrated into “ordinary” spectacles and the tactile display worn as a satchel, arm or waist band device. Our project requires innovative solutions that are beyond our expertise. Therefore, we intend to use the FP7 “Research for the Benefit of SMEs” programme and have recruited leading RTD Performers to help develop the innovations.
