VizWiz Grand Challenge: Answering Visual Questions from Blind People (2018, background): “In VizWiz, ∼28% of visual questions are deemed unanswerable by crowd workers, despite the availability of several automated systems designed to guide blind photographers to improve the image focus [3], lighting [8], or composition [18, 37, 44].”
Disability-first Dataset Creation: Lessons from Constructing a Dataset for Teachable Object Recognition with Blind and Low Vision Data Collectors (2021, background): “Such well-framed, well-lit, stable photographs can be difficult for a data collector who is blind or low vision to confidently provide without sighted assistance [1, 2, 6, 24, 27, 58].”
An Assisted Photography Framework to Help Visually Impaired Users Properly Aim a Camera (2014, methodology): “The PortraitFramer application by the same authors [Jayant et al. 2011] informed users on how many faces were within the camera image.”
Hands Holding Clues for Object Recognition in Teachable Machines (2019, methodology): “[34] built upon the frst strategy to guide users by asking them to take a frst photo of the object up-close and then to follow verbal feedback to move the camera away.”
Privacy Concerns and Behaviors of People with Visual Impairments (2015, background): “Some applications help the visually impaired capture and manage photos [12,15], but Adams et al. [2] report that blind users still face the risk of unintentionally sharing an embar-rassing or sensitive image online.”
Real time object scanning using a mobile phone and cloud-based visual search engine (2013, background): “A number of published articles [1, 3, 20, 21, 24] have shown that blind people take photos for multiple reasons, including sending to remote sighted people for feedback and for general object recognition [3].”
Visual challenges in the everyday lives of blind people (2013, background): “) [18, 16, 6, 5], their capabilities are dictated as much by the state-of-the-art in technology as they are by real human problems.”
