在本文中，我们提出了一个新的系统，帮助盲人用户在室内环境中定位自己。我们开发了一种传感器模块，可以像手电筒一样由盲人用户操作，并可用于在三维环境中搜索任务。通过按下按键，可以将有关对象特性、位置、方向和导航的查询发送到所连接的便携式计算机，或者发送到提供环境模型的数据服务器联盟。最后，这些询问通过文本到语音引擎进行声学回答。
In this paper we present a new system that assists blind users in orienting themselves in indoor environments. We developed a sensor module that can be handled like a flashlight by a blind user and can be used for searching tasks within the three-dimensional environment. By pressing keys, inquiries concerning object characteristics, position, orientation and navigation can be sent to a connected portable computer, or to a federation of data servers providing models of the environment. Finally these inquiries are acoustically answered over a text-to-speech engine.
