ForeSightGuide: An Anticipatory Framework toward Accurate and Low-Redundancy Guidance for the Visually Impaired
Electronic travel aids are pivotal for the independent mobility of the visually impaired. While Vision-Language Models (VLMs) offer rich environmental understanding, they often suffer from excessive false positives in dynamic scenarios, leading to cognitive overload. To address this, we present ForeSightGuide, an anticipatory assistive guidance framework that couples semantic scene understanding with predictive hazard assessment. Unlike reactive systems, ForeSightGuide leverages the reasoning capabilities of VLMs to anticipate obstacle motion, effectively filtering out non-threatening objects
