Auxiliary Glasses Designed for Visually Impaired People with Color Blindness and Regional Visual Impairments

Abstract

Visually impaired people are numerous in society and in a vulnerable position, and social concerns to these disadvantaged groups should be increasing. This paper introduces a pair of AR glasses with corresponding app designed and developed for color-blind people and people with regional visual impairments. The content captured by the camera is recolored by color rotation and displayed on the glasses, so that the color-blind people can better distinguish colors. We also creatively put forward the idea of transfer of the visual field, which assists the visually impaired in the area to perceive the scene ahead. Result from 24 volunteers proves that the pair of glasses can greatly assist the life of visually impaired people.
