EyeBeacons: Wayfinding in Public Spaces

Home > Projects > EyeBeacons: Wayfinding in Public Spaces

Within the project we organized 5 focus group sessions, several user test sessions and 3 workshops. These activities have so far resulted in 2 papers (ACM SIGACCESS 2019 en ACM MobileHCI 2019), 4 abstracts, 8 presentations at scientific or professional conferences and 4 demonstrations. We were present at the international Vision2017 conference, we gave a presentation to the association for the rehabilitation of partially sighted people (VRS), and actively discussed at the ZonMW Inzicht meeting. Moreover, we gave a workshop and demo at the ZiezoBeurs2018, we gave a demo and workshop on the Orientation and Mobility Day and we presented the EyeBeacons project to the residents of Amsterdam during the WeMakeTheCity event. More than 50 students made an active contribution to EyeBeacons through project assignments and internships. The students’ work was presented at the Thingscon2017 conference and other students actively participated in the ZieZoBeurs 2018 and 2019. The EyeBeacons project has been mentioned on national and international websites such as vvrbs.nl, nationalezorggids.nl, natuurzonderdrempels.nl, debelgischeoptiekgids.be, zonmw.nl, visio.org, saxion.nl en hva.nl. Recently we made a video in which we summarize the status of the project.
