Abstract:
As technology pushes automation to greater degrees of autonomy, the verification and validation burden becomes more cost and time prohibitive. It has been well established that, as stated in AF Technology Horizons 2010, "It is possible to develop systems having high levels of autonomy, but it is the lack of suitable V&V methods that prevents all but relatively low levels of autonomy from being certified for use." This increased move towards further levels of autonomy has brought the certification need to a national level.

Abstract:
Many practical barriers continue to exist for a blind individual who strives to live an independent and active life, despite decades of development of assistive technologies. This project addresses the following two most prominent challenges: (1) disparity in information-sharing among people with visual impairment and its limited understanding by the research community; and (2) lack of methods and tools for effectively addressing the disparity.
