碩士 / 國立臺中教育大學 / 特殊教育學系碩士班 / 106 / The research is to discuss the influence of tactile paving surfaces on the navigation of pedestrian crosswalks for the visually impaired and to understand the necessity of the installation of tactile paving surfaces. This research narrows down to ten visually impaired individuals to perceive differences between individuals in detecting pedestrian crosswalks.
Photos and video recording of actual measurement of the walking distance and records of interviews with the visually impaired were conducted as the approach to the research. The results are as follows:
1.Tactile paving surfaces do not affect the time it takes on the navigation of pedestrian crosswalks.
2.Tactile paving surfaces help locate pedestrian crosswalks accurately and it is 100 percent chances of success to locate pedestrian crosswalks.
3.With accumulated experiences in walking, one can shorten the time it takes to locate pedestrian crosswalks and improve the accuracy in detecting one.
4.Curb ramps serves as warning of upcoming intersections.
5.The alignment accuracy of curb ramps to crosswalks does not affect the time it takes to walk and to locate the pedestrian crosswalks.
6.The experience of the visually impaired on tactile paving surfaces is positive and it corresponds to the results of the experiment.
Based on the results of the research, advice is hereby provided for the education of the visually impaired people, related governmental construction, and for future research in related areas.
