Route number recognition ot Public Transport Vehicles via the Bionic Eyeglass
Kristóf Karacs, Tamás Roska · 2006
In spite of the impressive advances related to retinal prostheses, there is no imminent promise to make them soon available with a realistic performance to help navigating blind persons. In our new project, we are designing a bionic eyeglass that is providing a wearable TeraOps visual computing power to guide visually impaired people in their daily life. Detection and recognition of signs and displays in real, noisy environments is a key element in many functions of the bionic eyeglass. This paper describes spatial-temporal analogic cellular algorithms used for localizing signs and displays, and recognition of numbers they contain
