The Application of Tactile Experience in Urban Perception
Urban perception is the result of mutual transaction between human and environment and the process of perception is developed through the three continuous steps of “sensation”, “perception” and “cognition”. In the first step (sensorial perception), the environmental signals are received via sensorial sensors and each different sense based on its own essence, performance and ability has its own ...
متن کاملTowards Automatic Generation of Tactile Graphics
Abundant high-quality computer images are available on the Internet and elsewhere, yet many are virtually inaccessible to the blind computer user. This paper introduces research in the development of a system for automatic conversion of any digitized image into a comprehensible tactile graphic form. An experimental software and hardware system is presented, and preliminary test results are disc...
متن کاملText Segmentation and Grouping for Tactile Graphics
The goal of our research is to develop computer software capable of automating the conversion of figures and diagrams in a book to a tactile format readily understandable by blind persons. Among the challenges this goal poses is the need to find and remove text from the figures and diagrams for eventual conversion to Braille. Since conventional optical character recognition (OCR) software is po...
متن کاملCategorical perception of tactile distance.
The tactile surface forms a continuous sheet covering the body. And yet, the perceived distance between two touches varies across stimulation sites. Perceived tactile distance is larger when stimuli cross over the wrist, compared to when both fall on either the hand or the forearm. This effect could reflect a categorical distortion of tactile space across body-part boundaries (in which stimuli ...
