Assessment of Indoor Route-finding Technology for People with Visual Impairment.

Amy A Kalia1, Gordon E Legge, Rudrava Roy, Advait Ogale.   

Abstract

This study investigated navigation with route instructions generated by digital-map software and synthetic speech. Participants, either visually impaired or sighted wearing blind folds, successfully located rooms in an unfamiliar building. Users with visual impairment demonstrated better route-finding performance when the technology provided distance information in number of steps rather than walking time or number of feet.
