Virtual Tactile Maps
Tactile maps constitute the media most commonly used by blind and partially sighted people for the exploration of spatial information. However, compared to maps for sighted people, they are inconvenient to produce and contain less information. We have developed methods and implemented them prototypically, by which visually impaired people can explore a geographical area flexibly with the help o...
متن کاملExtracting Features from Tactile Maps
Tactile imaging is a newly developed mechanical sensing technology for documenting the properties of hard lumps contained in soft tissue. An examiner strokes a scan head across tissue that contains a mass and images of the distributed contact pressure between the head and the tissue are recorded. We have developed models that predict these pressure distributions from geometric and material prop...
متن کاملGeneration of Tactile Maps for Artificial Skin
Prior research has shown that representations of retinal surfaces can be learned from the intrinsic structure of visual sensory data in neural simulations, in robots, as well as by animals. Furthermore, representations of cochlear (frequency) surfaces can be learned from auditory data in neural simulations. Advances in hardware technology have allowed the development of artificial skin for robo...
متن کامل3d Printing Technology in Tactile Maps Compiling
The paper presents a joint research activity of specialists on digital maps and specialistseducation of the blind. The authors seek to evaluate and develop aspects of interpretation and perception of geospace by modern tactile maps based on 3D printing. There are three newly introduced types of tactile maps (all coloured). Map of type A is a tactile map printed by 3D printing technology (Contex...
متن کاملMinds, Things, and Materiality
In a rich and thought-provoking paper, Lambros Malafouris argues that taking material culture seriously means to be ‘systematically concerned with figuring out the causal efficacy of materiality in the enactment and constitution of a cognitive system or operation’ (Malafouris 2004, 55). As I understand this view, there are really two intertwined claims to be established. The first is that the t...
