To optimize guide-dog robots, first listen to the visually impaired
What features does a robotic guide dog need? Ask the blind, say the authors of a recent paper. Led by researchers at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, a study identifying how to develop robot guide dogs with insights from guide dog users and trainers won a Best Paper Award at CHI 2024: Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems (CHI).
The paper is published in the Proceedings of the CHI Conference on Human Factors in Computing Systems.
