Flexibility and Stability in Sensory Processing Revealed Using Visual-to-Auditory Sensory Substitution
The classical view of sensory processing involves independent processing in sensory cortices and multisensory integration in associative areas. This hierarchical structure has been challenged by evidence of multisensory responses in sensory areas, and dynamic weighting of sensory inputs in associative areas, thus far reported independently. Here, we used a visual-to-auditory sensory substitutio...
متن کامل‘Visual’ Acuity of the Congenitally Blind Using Visual-to-Auditory Sensory Substitution
Sensory Substitution Devices (SSDs) convey visual information through sounds or touch, thus theoretically enabling a form of visual rehabilitation in the blind. However, for clinical use, these devices must provide fine-detailed visual information which was not yet shown for this or other means of visual restoration. To test the possible functional acuity conveyed by such devices, we used the S...
متن کاملThe evolution of a visual-to-auditory sensory substitution device using interactive genetic algorithms.
Sensory substitution is a promising technique for mitigating the loss of a sensory modality. Sensory substitution devices (SSDs) work by converting information from the impaired sense (e.g., vision) into another, intact sense (e.g., audition). However, there are a potentially infinite number of ways of converting images into sounds, and it is important that the conversion takes into account the...
متن کاملMultisensory integration, sensory substitution and visual rehabilitation.
Sensory substitution has advanced remarkably over the past 35 years since first introduced to the scientific literature by Paul Bach-y-Rita. In this issue dedicated to his memory, we describe a collection of reviews that assess the current state of neuroscience research on sensory substitution, visual rehabilitation, and multisensory processes.
متن کاملEyeMusic: Introducing a "visual" colorful experience for the blind using auditory sensory substitution.
PURPOSE Sensory-substitution devices (SSDs) provide auditory or tactile representations of visual information. These devices often generate unpleasant sensations and mostly lack color information. We present here a novel SSD aimed at addressing these issues. METHODS We developed the EyeMusic, a novel visual-to-auditory SSD for the blind, providing both shape and color information. Our design ...
