Abstract
A lot of difficulties for disabled persons can be attenuated using imagery. This is not only true for the visually impaired, but also for other kinds of handicap. We will review the major contributions of the image processing in the different contexts, showing in the same time the benefit of this technology for everybody. The gap between valid and impaired persons is not so large. This will lead us to the concept of “Universal Design”.
