This addresses the problem of indoor navigation for visually impaired individuals, but it appears incremental as it builds on existing path-following and feedback methods.
The paper tackles indoor navigation for visually impaired people by developing ARIANNA, a system that uses colored paths on the floor and smartphone vibrational feedback, resulting in a flexible and low-cost solution.
ARIANNA stands for pAth Recognition for Indoor Assisted Navigation with Augmented perception. It is a flexible and low cost navigation system for vi- sually impaired people. Arianna permits to navigate colored paths painted or sticked on the floor revealing their directions through vibrational feedback on commercial smartphones.
