Computer Vision for Supporting Visually Impaired People: A Systematic Review

Abstract: Globally around the world in 2010, the number of people of all ages visually impaired is estimated to be 285 million, of whom 39 million are blind according to the study of World Health Organization (Global Data on Visual Impairments, 2010). Visual impairment has a significant impact on individuals’ quality of life, including their ability to work and to develop personal relationships. Almost half (48 %) of the visually impaired feel “moderately” or “completely” cut off from people and things around them (Hako… Show more

“…Visual disabilities use a navigational aid as a stick when walking or doing activities in specific environments when no one accompanies them. An ultrasonic stick is one of the innovations with limited functionality [1][2][3][4]. Unfortunately, there are not many assistive devices that people with visual disabilities can use without having to perform eye transplant surgery.…”

“…This is confirmed by the consequences of vision impairment that severely affect the quality of life and the way people interact with their surroundings. Indeed, half of the people with vision impairment reported feeling cut off from other people and things around them (Hakobyan et al, 2013;Anthony & Kusnadi, 2021). This statistic is even more crucial when considering that around the globe at least 2.2 billion people are affected by a near or distance vision impairment and among them, 1 billion has a moderate or severe vision impairment or blindness (Steinmetz et al, 2021;Bourne et al, 2021;Fricke et al, 2018).…”
