Description
Summary:We gather the requirements visually impaired road users have concerning a camera-based assistive system in order to develop a concept for transferring algorithms from Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) to this domain. We therefore combine procedures from software engineering, especially requirements engineering, with methods from qualitative social sciences, namely expert interviews by means of problem-centered interview methodology. The evaluation of the interviews results in a total of six traffic scenarios, that are of interest for the assistance of visually impaired road users, clustered into three categories: orientation, pedestrian and public transport scenarios. From each scenario, we derive use cases based on computer vision and state which of them are also addressed in ADAS so that we can examine them further in the future to formulate the transfer concept. We present a general literature review concerning solutions from ADAS for the identified overlapping use cases from both fields and take a closer look on how to adapt ADAS Lane Detection algorithms to the assistance of the visually impaired.
