The visual accessibility of a space refers to the effectiveness with which vision can be used to travel safely through the space and to pursue the intended activities in the space. Visual accessibility has an important impact on low-vision mobility. I will describe our empirical approach for studying the visual accessibility of indoor spaces, including experiments on the detection and recognition of steps and ramps. I will also describe our development of a new form of adaptive technology — the “Digital Sign System”—to assist visually-impaired people with indoor navigation.
