Abstract

This paper presents a method utilizing temperature field to improve the indoor mobility of the blind/visually-impaired-people (Blind/VIP) in a physical field-enhanced intelligent space (iSpace) that takes advantages of the rapidly developing cloud-computing and personal mobile devices (generally built with sound, image, video and vibration alert capabilities) to share way-finding information among users. A method, which uses temperature fields and their gradients to detect face-orientation and analyze leg-postures for predicting the motion states of other humans in a traveling path, is introduced. The concept feasibility of the temperature-based human motion detection has been experimentally validated in a simulated school environment for the Blind/VIP where users are generally familiar with stationary objects but less confident in daily walking in a crowd where human motion is unpredictable. The experimental findings presented in this paper establish a basis for developing temperature filed-enhanced iSpace.
