Development of The Robot Escorting the Blind and the Sighted Visitors for their Long-Life Learning

In this research project, I proposed to make Information Assurance Scenarios for the Robot escorting the blind and the sighted museum visitors. The study interests were focused on the trend of the blind and the sighted visitor's attention. Especially, I proposed a method to measuring how the blind to shift their own attention using Near-Infrared Spectroscopy. Some experimental results insisted that the brain is strongly activated at beginning of a task rather than the process of the task. The secondary, the gaze tracking system made it clear the characteristics of the sighted visitor's attention and insisted that the appropriate standing position in the guidance dialogue might affect joint attentions and nonverbal communications between the blind and the sighted.
