Abstract

Moving objects and oncoming pedestrians sometimes become obstacles for a pedestrian either on a crosswalk or in the pavement at night. Low vision persons and aged people with low eye sight sometimes dodge against the other pedestrians or danger. A dynamic object should suggest a person its affordance for the safe and pleasant mobility as static object like a chair affords. We propose an affordance of dynamic object based on instinct and an affordance indicator system for safe mobility based on face recognition. The results of examination of the indicator both in a passage and on the stairs are also discussed.
