| Abstract(in English) | To play a blind bowling, sighted assistants should support blind players by telling information like ball trajectory, number of remaining pins, a game score. However, these players want to acquire all of information by themselves without any support by sighted assistants. To fill this need, a system which detects remaining pins and ball trajectory using simple image processing had been developed in this research. The system was improved to more practical one, by comments from actual players and assistants. For example, the positions of camera was changed and an order of machine-voice information was rearranged. After that, the system is tested in Korea in where a camp training of Blind Bowling Congress Japan was held in January, 2015. During the test, it was shown that the system could be adapted to different bowling alley. It was also clear that difference of rake and pin setter motion causes error and some parameter of the software should be adjusted. |
