Ongoing Projects

1. Computer Vision based Auditory Guidance for Navigation in Indoor Semi-controlled Environment

The objective of this project is to develop a vision based software system that will enable visually impaired people to independently navigate in indoor semi-controlled environments. Similarly the system will also provide help/guidance to tourists or visitors in huge unfamiliar places such as museums and historical buildings. Here the guidance will not only include navigational assistance but also automatic information provision about various objects/things.

Fiducial markers augmented with audio information are placed in the environment. The user holds a mobile phone with webcam in his/her hand and navigates through the environment. The audio assistance is provided to the user whenever a particular marker is detected by the camera and thus enables him/her to independently navigate or get automatic and appropriate information about objects/things in environments.
