متن کاملToward a Mobility Aid for the Blind
The development of mobility aids for the blind is a challenging task that has a number of potential solutions. Direct electrical stimulation of the visual cortex has been used to generate ‘phosphenes’ (perceived as flashes of light) that can, with training, be interpreted as low resolution images. A second approach is to use a grid of tactile stimulators to represent an array of pixels. Thirdly...

In this paper, we discuss the development of cost effective, wireless, and wearable vibrotactile haptic device for stiffness perception during an interaction with virtual objects. Our experimental setup consists of haptic device with five vibrotactile actuators, virtual reality environment tailored in Unity 3D integrating the Oculus Rift Head Mounted Display (HMD) and the Leap Motion controller...
متن کاملSonification of Color and Depth in a Mobility Aid for Blind People
The See Color interface transforms a small portion of a colored video image into sound sources represented by spatialized musical instruments. Basically, the conversion of colors into sounds is achieved by quantization of the HSL color system. Our purpose is to provide visually impaired individuals with a capability of perception of the environment in real time. In this work the novelty is the ...
