無障礙空間規劃是都市規劃中重要的課題，政府機關以建築法規或是道路條例由規劃者的角度「以上至下」進行整體之規劃。然而這樣的方式，忽略了視覺障礙者為出發點的需求做規劃，無障礙建設的缺漏，無法滿足視障者的行動需求，除此之外，現今的智慧型手杖大多數不符合視障者在定向行動訓練課程中所學的行動技能做配合，視障者在城市環境的阻礙與輔具的約束下，對於外出獨立行動的信心會逐漸下降。
本研究嘗試「以人為本」，「以零至整」的方式輔助視障者與無障礙環境規劃者，以數位感測導盲手杖結合行動裝置的GPS定位功能搭起溝通的橋樑，讓每一位視障者日常行走時所遇到的障礙處，優先的被規劃與維護，以應用程式開發的方式為結合數位感測導盲杖紀錄行動路徑中的障礙物地點，為無障礙規劃者與視障者紀錄需要積極被維護的環境。如此以使用者切身經驗為出發點的無障礙規劃方式，當能顧及視障者生活小徑的不方便與危險。

Barrier-free space planning is an important topic in urban planning. Government agencies apply building and road regulations from the planner's perspective when implementing the overall plan. However, from the outset, this approach ignores the needs of the visually impaired. The lack of barrier-free construction ignores the mobility needs of the visually impaired. In addition, most smart canes on the market do not meet the needs of users. Despite applying the skills acquired in the Orientation and Mobility training course, the confidence of the visually impaired in going out independently is likely to decline because of obstacles in the urban environment and the limitations of assistive devices.
This study attempts to be "people-oriented" and "start to finish" in assisting visually impaired people and environmental planners in working towards barrier-free spaces. By using digital sensor-equipped canes combined with the GPS function of mobile devices a communication bridge for each visual. Obstacles encountered by people with sight disabilities as they walk about every day are thereby identified and then prioritized for planning and maintenance purposes. The application development method is used to record obstacle locations in the action path by using digital sensing guide sticks, which is an accessible planner and visually impaired. Those doing the recording must operate in an environment that is actively maintained. This approach to accessibility planning applies the users’ personal experience and takes into account the inconvenience and dangers in the path of the visually impaired.
