The idea of using mobile assistance robots for gait training in rehabilitation has been increasingly explored in recent years due to the associated benefits. This paper describes how the previous results of research and praxis on gait training with a mobile assistance robot in orthopedic rehabilitation can be transferred to ophthalmic-related orientation and mobility training for blind and visually impaired people. To this end, the specific requirements for such orientation and mobility training are presented from a therapeutic perspective. Using sensory data, it is investigated how the analysis of training errors can be automated and transferred back to the training person. These pre-examinations are the prerequisite for any form of robot-assisted mobile gait training in ophthamological rehabilitation, which does not exist so far and which is expected to be of great benefit to these patients.
