VR Application for Supporting Object Recognition Considering Eye in Low Vision

Abstract

Most of the support systems for the visual impairment are targeted at the blind, and there are few systems that fully consider those with low vision. This may be due to the fact that the vision feature of a low vision person is different for each low vision person due to the complex relationship between visual acuity, visual field, color vision and light sensation, and that uniform support is impossible. In this paper, we propose a Virtual Reality (VR) application that supports visual acuity equal to that of persons without disabilities by performing visual correction suitable for each visual disability of low vision.
