The Third Eye: A Shopping Assistant for the Visually Impaired

Published: 06 May 2017 Publication History

Abstract

This video describes HCI work that is part of a multi-university NSF Expedition in Computing "Visual Cortex on Silicon" (CCF 1317560) spanning vision science, computer vision, processor architecture, information retrieval, and human-computer interaction. Our driving application is a smart camera prosthetic enabling people with visual impairment to shop on their own. The video was originally shown during Big Ten television broadcasts in Fall 2016.
