Abstract(in English) A lot of devices that inform the visually impaired of the distance and the direction by the voice have been developed in order to navigate them. However, when the device informs them of the distance by the voice, it is not found what presentation method will be easy to understand for the user. Then, in this paper, we will report what presentation method will be good on the basis of walking experiment and subjective evaluation.
