TL;DR: The design is completed with acoustic feedback to assist visually impaired users while approaching obstacles and audio bone conducting technology is employed to play these sounds without interrupting the visually impaired user from hearing other important sounds from its local environment.
Abstract: The aim of this article is focused on the design of an obstacle detection system for assisting visually impaired people. A dense disparity map is computed from the images of a stereo camera carried by the user. By using the dense disparity map, potential obstacles can be detected in 3D in indoor and outdoor scenarios. A ground plane estimation algorithm based on RANSAC plus filtering techniques allows the robust detection of the ground in every frame. A polar grid representation is proposed to account for the potential obstacles in the scene. The design is completed with acoustic feedback to assist visually impaired users while approaching obstacles. Beep sounds with different frequencies and repetitions inform the user about the presence of obstacles. Audio bone conducting technology is employed to play these sounds without interrupting the visually impaired user from hearing other important sounds from its local environment. A user study participated by four visually impaired volunteers supports the proposed system.

TL;DR: In this article, a modified Composite Burn Index (CBI) is proposed to improve the retrieval of burn severity from remotely sensed data, which takes into account the fraction of cover (FCOV) of the different vegetation strata used to compute the CBI.

TL;DR: In this article, the role of externalities in promoting industrial growth in Spanish regions is discussed, and the analysis is restricted to dynamic externalities using productivity, instead of labor, using data from the Spanish Industry Survey from 1978 to 1992 for 26 manufacturing branches.

TL;DR: The reaction between (C5Me5)SiMe3 and group 4 element tetrahalides MX4 (M Ti, Cl, Br, I, Zr, Hf, X ǫ, Cl) gives the corresponding (η5-C5me5)MX3 derivatives in nearly quantitative yields in one-step procedure without the need for further purification as discussed by the authors.
