Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) When visually impaired person walks alone, they usually use a white cane to detect plane area. However the cane can reach frontal area to only 1, 2 meters. This paper proposes the method that can detect walkable plane to about 10 meters by using RGB-D camera and wide area RGB camera that is set to see far. We detect walkable plane area to 2, 3 meters by using depth image taken by the RGB-D camera. We detect unique color region to about 10 meters by using far RGB image taken by wide area camera and treat the same color region as the plane area based on the attribute of the overlapped region on both RGB images.
