| Descripción: | Our goal in this project was to develop an augmented reality system, called Troyoculus, to help night-blind people improve their reading capabilities. We developed two prototypes, one based on Oculus Rift and other based on a smartphone. We tested both prototypes using three variables: distance between the subject and the reading target, amount of light in the reading area, and font size. Two subjects participated in the testing. Results show an average improvement of at least 6 % points in reading performance and a maximum improvement of 43 % points using Oculus Rift at 12 lux. Test results of both prototypes were better than when subjects were not using any device. |
