Color Targets: Fiducials to Help Visually Impaired People Find Their Way by Camera Phone
A major challenge faced by the blind and visually impaired population is that of wayfinding—the ability of a person to find his or her way to a given destination. We propose a new wayfinding aid based on a camera cell phone, which is held by the user to find and read aloud specially designed machine-readable signs, which we call color targets, in indoor environments (labeling locations such as ...
متن کاملA cone can help you find your way in a Poisson Delaunay triangulation
Walking strategies are a standard tool for point location in a triangulation of size n. Although often claimed to be Θ( √ n ) under random distribution hypotheses, this conjecture has only been formally proved by Devroye, Lemaire, and Moreau [Comp Geom–Theor Appl, vol. 29, 2004], in the case of the so called straight walk which has the very specific property that deciding whether a given (Delau...
متن کاملHow ants find their way
Path finders: Humans can use higher cognitive functions to combine information from a range of sources when they’re trying to find their way, but how do insects achieve this? (Photo: Getty Images.) Just over 80 years ago, a young biologist in Leiden, in the Netherlands, handed in a PhD thesis that was only 29 pages long and had been written up in a mad hurry, as the author was keen to join a sp...
متن کاملCould ALICE Find the Elusive Higgs?
The Higgs boson is the theoretical mechanism for creating the mass of particles. Although it has never been seen, the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) is the most likely place for it to be created in the laboratory. The ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment) detector is focused on the study of heavy ion collisions at the LHC and was not designed to find the Higgs boson; however, there is a cha...
متن کاملProlonged febrile syndrome. What could we find?
Background Often a patient with prolonged fever requires a complex medical approach involving several medical specialties and extensive laboratory investigations. Case report We report the case of a 32 year male who presented for prolonged febrile syndrome about 2 months, chills and discreet urinary symptoms, initially interpreted to be a chronic prostatitis and treated for about 40 days with f...
