Multisensory inclusive design with sensory substitution [PDF]
Cognitive Research, 2020 Sensory substitution techniques are perceptual and cognitive phenomena used to represent one sensory form with an alternative. Current applications of sensory substitution techniques are typically focused on the development of assistive technologies ...

Sensory substitution reveals a manipulation bias [PDF]
Nature Communications, 2020 The challenge of sensory substitution as a therapeutic approach is to design systems that are well accepted by subjects. Here, in deaf songbirds, the authors substitute hearing with vision, suggesting substitution devices could provide sensory feedback ...

Sensory Substitution and Multimodal Mental Imagery [PDF]
Perception, 2017 Many philosophers use findings about sensory substitution devices in the grand debate about how we should individuate the senses. The big question is this: Is “vision” assisted by (tactile) sensory substitution really vision? Or is it tactile perception? Or some sui generis novel form of perception?

Navigation aid for blind persons by visual-to-auditory sensory substitution: A pilot study. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2020 PurposeIn this study, we investigate to what degree augmented reality technology can be used to create and evaluate a visual-to-auditory sensory substitution device to improve the performance of blind persons in navigation and recognition tasks.MethodsA ...

Sensory substitution for orthopaedic gait rehabilitation: A systematic review and meta-analysis for clinical practice guideline development [PDF]
Heliyon, 2022 Introduction: Sensory Substitution is a biofeedback intervention whereby at least sensory system is utilised to supplement environmental information which is traditionally gathered by another sense. Objective: To present an evidence-based overview of the

Functional MRI of Sensory Substitution in the Blind. [PDF]
Annu Int Conf IEEE Eng Med Biol Soc, 2018 Visual cortex functionality in the blind has been shown to shift away from sensory networks toward task-positive networks that are involved in top-down modulation. However, how such modulation is shaped by experience and reflected behaviorally remains unclear.

Individual Differences in Sensory Substitution
Multisensory Research, 2017 Sensory substitution devices were developed in the context of perceptual rehabilitation and they aim at compensating one or several functions of a deficient sensory modality by converting stimuli that are normally accessed through this deficient sensory modality into stimuli accessible by another sensory modality.

The Topo-Speech sensory substitution system as a method of conveying spatial information to the blind and vision impaired [PDF]
Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2023 Humans, like most animals, integrate sensory input in the brain from different sensory modalities. Yet humans are distinct in their ability to grasp symbolic input, which is interpreted into a cognitive mental representation of the world.

A self-training program for sensory substitution devices. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2021 Sensory Substitution Devices (SSDs) convey visual information through audition or touch, targeting blind and visually impaired individuals. One bottleneck towards adopting SSDs in everyday life by blind users, is the constant dependency on sighted ...

Active sensory substitution allows fast learning via effective motor-sensory strategies [PDF]
iScience, 2021 Summary: We examined the development of new sensing abilities in adults by training participants to perceive remote objects through their fingers. Using an Active-Sensing based sensory Substitution device (ASenSub), participants quickly learned to ...
