“…Feature detection is an approach to recognize objects using discriminative points such as edges and corners. In this study, we paid attention to SIFT [12], SURF [2] and Ferns [15], which are used in road sign recognition [7]. These methods can be used even if a portion of the target object is hidden and object is rotated.…”

In this article, we propose a system for augmented card playing with a projector and a camera to add playfulness and increase communication among players of a traditional card game. The functionalities were derived on the basis of a user survey session with actual players. Playing cards are recognized using a video camera on the basis of a template matching without any artificial marker with an accuracy of > 0.96. Players are also tracked to provide person-dependent services using a video camera from the direction of their hands appearing over a table. These functions are provided as an API; therefore, the user of our system, i.e., a developer, can easily augment playing card games. The Pelmanism game was augmented on top of the system to validate the concept of augmentation. The results showed the feasibility of the system's performance in an actual environment and the potential of enhancing playfulness and communication among players.

“…To aid the mobility of people who suffer from visually disabilities, a number of vision assistance system are proposed. For example, Fujiyoshi et al [1] proposed a road observation and information providing system for pedestrian. In this system, the information of moving objects and road situation is detected using environment embedded terminal, such as monitoring cameras, placed in a street, and is provided for users through a mobile terminal.…”

The objects have potentially dangerousness for pedestrians, such as illegally-parked bicy-cles, power poles, stopping vehicles, etc., could be found in a street. Those objects are threats to thesafety of elderly and disabled people with impaired vision, because it is difficult for them to find thoseobjects. In this paper, to enhance the elderly and disabled people's mobility, we propose the methodto estimate the region which is feasible for people's mobility in life space. In this method, the imagesare obtained from a head-mounted wearable camera, and the suited region for walking is estimatedusing 3-dimensional analysis and genetic algorithm. The performance and the validity are shown byapplying the proposed method to a number of scenes in life space.

The objects have potentially dangerousness for pedestrians, such as illegally-parked bicycles, power poles, stopping vehicles, etc., could be found in a street. Those objects are threats to the safety of elderly and disabled people with impaired vision, because it is difficult for them to find those objects. In this paper, to enhance the elderly and disabled people's mobility, we propose the method to estimate the region which is feasible for people's mobility in life space. In this method, the images are obtained from a head-mounted wearable sensor device, and the suited region for walking is estimated using a weak assumption with respect to an installation requirement of the device and the geometric relationship between the device and the target region. The performance and the validity are shown by applying the proposed method to a number of scenes in life space.
