识别技术的最新进展使视力障碍人士能够使用智能手机应用程序和辅助设备从周围环境中获取视觉信息。这篇论文指出了这种方法的一个没有引起太多关注的问题。也就是说，要求用户主动拍照，这对于有视力障碍的人来说并不总是容易的。为了解决这个问题，与当前的标准方法（我们称之为主动信息获取）相反，我们提出被动信息获取（PIA），它不需要用户主动拍照。然而，PIA 带来了一个新问题：应用程序往往会向用户传输过多的信息。因此，本文探讨了让视力障碍人士在 PIA 中仅获取所需视觉信息的更好方法。具体来说，我们对九名视力障碍者进行了实验，评估七种信息传递方法，包括信息摘要和互动交流方法。
Recent advancements in recognition technology allow people with visual impairment to obtain visual information from their surroundings using smartphone apps and assistive devices. This paper points out a problem with this approach that has not attracted much attention. That is, the user is required to actively take a photo, which is not always easy for people with visual impairment. To address this problem, in contrast to the current standard approach, which we call active information acquisition, we propose passive information acquisition (PIA), which does not require the user to actively take a photo. However, PIA creates a new problem: the app tends to transfer too much information to the user. Therefore, this paper explores better ways for people with visual impairment toward obtaining only the desired visual information in PIA. Specifically, we experimented with nine people with visual impairment to evaluate seven information transmission methods, including information summarization and interactive communication methods.
