Title
UWB Indoor Tracking System for Visually Impaired People.
Abstract
Tracking is a process that captures knowledge of the path of an object's movement and its current location. This paper proposes an ultra-wideband (UWB) indoor tracking system for blind people in a high interference environment such as facilities with communication equipment. To the best of our knowledge, our proposed system is the first that offers two features (1) server-based tracking, in which the administrator can get the current position and the path of the blind person in question; and (2) situation awareness, in which the blind person can get voice information about existing and surrounding places. The system has shown satisfactory results when it was used and evaluated by some blind participants.
