A Navigation Aid for the Blind Using Tactile-Visual Sensory Substitution
2006 International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2006The objective of this study is to improve the quality of life for the visually impaired by restoring their ability to self-navigate. In this paper we describe a compact, wearable device that converts visual information into a tactile signal. This device, constructed entirely from commercially available parts, enables the user to perceive distant ...

The future of sensory aids for the blind.
Canadian journal of ophthalmology. Journal canadien d'ophtalmologie, 1976Although it is apparent that a successful substitute for vision will not be available for at least two or three decades, the past twenty five years of research is now bearing fruit. Within the next few years several high-technology devices will solve the problems of mobility and reading.

Recurrent Issues Underlying the Development of Tactile Sensory Aids
Ear and Hearing, 1988Research in sensory aids has exhibited a cyclic pattern in which periods of great activity, usually initiated by a new discovery or development, are followed by relatively inactive periods. The issues underlying the development of tactile aids are reviewed within this framework.

Sensory aids in conjunction with cochlear implants.
The American journal of otology, 1992The use of cochlear implants in profoundly hearing-impaired individuals can restore varying degrees of auditory capabilities. Although very little auditory information is transmitted to these patients through amplification systems, we hypothesized that some of the cues obtained from sensory aids might be helpful when used in conjunction with the ...
