The proposed method finds a walkable region on the sidewalk. Thus, at a pedestrian crossing, it finds a traffic light and judges an appropriate timing to cross the road by analyzing the color and flashing status of the signal. The walkable region is found employing Graph- Based Segmentation (GBS), and once a pedestrian crossing is reached through the use of a GPS signal, a traffic light is detected by use of the HOG feature and Random Forest. The effectiveness of the proposed method was verified by experiments. This implies usefulness of a MY VISION system}, pages = {25--30}, title = {A Method of Navigating a Visually Impaired Person Using MY VISION}, volume = {9}, year = {2022} }
