Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) In this report, we propose a spot navigation system to assist visually impaired individuals in recalling memories related to spots that they often visit.
This system registers environment images and voice memos that are recorded in advance by a visually impaired individual or his or her supporter at various spots.
When the visually impaired individual visits one of the spots, the system determines the current spot based on image matching between the registered images and a current image taken at the spot, and then plays a voice memo which corresponds to the current spot.
The image matching is executed based on the histogram equalization, homography transformation, mosaicking. Experimental results are shown.
