We developed software called SIPReS, which describes two-dimensional images with sound. With this system, visually-impaired people can tell the location of a certain point in an image just by hearing notes of frequency each assigned according to the brightness of the point a user touches on. It can run on Android smartphones and tablets. We conducted a small-scale experiment to see if a visually-impaired person can recognize images with SIPReS. In the experiment, the subject successfully recognized if there is an object or not. He also recognized the location information. The experiment suggests this application’s potential as image recognition software.
