Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) We present a wayfinding system that assists blind people in determining the correct direction to a destination by taking a one-shot image. Signage is standard in public buildings and used to help visitors, but has little benefit for blind people. Our one-shot wayfinding system recognizes surrounding signage in all directions from an equirectangular image and indicates the destination’s direction.
