  • Corridor-Walker: Mobile Indoor Walking Assistance for Blind People to Avoid Obstacles and Recognize Intersections

    Masaki Kuribayashi, Seita Kayukawa, Jayakorn Vongkulbhisal, Chieko Asakawa, Daisuke Sato, Hironobu Takagi, Shigeo Morishima · 2022 · Proceedings of the ACM on Human-Computer Interaction (Proc. ACM Hum.-Comput. Interact., Vol. 6, MHCI, Article 179)

    Walking an indoor corridor independently is deceptively hard for a blind traveller. Two problems compound: avoiding obstacles stacked against the wall (the same wall the traveller uses as a tactile guide) and recognising when an intersection has arrived and which directions it…

  • LineChaser: A Smartphone-Based Navigation System for Blind People to Stand in Lines

    Masaki Kuribayashi, Seita Kayukawa, Hironobu Takagi, Chieko Asakawa, Shigeo Morishima · 2021 · Proceedings of the 2021 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems

    Standing in line is a mundane-looking task — at a cashier, bus stop, or airport check-in — but for a blind person it is a brittle, anxiety-ridden sequence: find where the line currently ends (a position that moves), join it without bumping into anyone, and then shuffle forward…

  • Smartphone-Based Assistance for Blind People to Stand in Lines

    Seita Kayukawa, Hironobu Takagi, João Guerreiro, Shigeo Morishima, Chieko Asakawa · 2020 · Extended Abstracts of the 2020 CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI EA '20, Late-Breaking Work)

    This CHI 2020 Late-Breaking Work is the preliminary study that seeded the CHI 2021 LineChaser paper by the same research group. Where the fuller LineChaser system would later combine line-end finding with AR-marker-based localisation and a dual audio/vibration interface, this…
