Abstract

One of the pleasures for guests at a wedding reception is viewing the event and the gorgeous outfits. However, many of these events are visually dependent, making it difficult for guests with low vision to enjoy them. This study proposed two systems to assist in such a situation: one is a real-time event viewing system that uses a video conferencing tool to allow guests with low vision to view the event on their own devices, and the other is an event location localization system that uses multiple loudspeakers. Several people with low vision used these systems at a wedding reception held in Japan, and a questionnaire survey was conducted on eight people with low vision to evaluating the usability of the systems. Based on the experimental results, guests with low vision could enjoy participating in the wedding reception by using the proposed system.
