Brief description:
A growing number of computer vision researchers are becoming
interested in applications for persons with visual impairments (VI),
including low vision and blindness. This workshop aims to bring
together computer vision researchers and experts in VI rehabilitation
and assistive technology. Attendance by VI experts outside the
computer vision community will also be encouraged. By addressing the
context in which assistive technology is used and designed, the
workshop seeks to help researchers identify fruitful areas of overlap
between the most pressing needs of the VI population and the
capabilities of computer vision technology.  A general discussion
session at the end of the workshop will facilitate the exchange of
ideas between computer vision researchers and VI experts.

Paper submission date: Wed., Mar. 10, 2010
