Projection Mapping User Interface for Disabled People

الملخص EN

Difficulty in communicating is one of the key challenges for people suffering from severe motor and speech disabilities.

Often such person can communicate and interact with the environment only using assistive technologies.

This paper presents a multifunctional user interface designed to improve communication efficiency and person independence.

The main component of this interface is a projection mapping technique used to highlight objects in the environment.

Projection mapping makes it possible to create a natural augmented reality information presentation method.

The user interface combines a depth sensor and a projector to create camera-projector system.

We provide a detailed description of camera-projector system calibration procedure.

The described system performs tabletop object detection and automatic projection mapping.

Multiple user input modalities have been integrated into the multifunctional user interface.

Such system can be adapted to the needs of people with various disabilities.
