This project investigates how visually impaired individuals can navigate independently using multisensory information. By studying the integration of tactile and auditory cues in animal models, the research aims to develop strategies for enhancing navigation aids for the visually impaired.
In Europe 30M people are visually impaired (VI), 2.5M of which are entirely blind.
Despite many efforts on the societal level, VIs are still ‘left in the dark’, when it comes to independent navigation.
Neuroscience has the long-term potential to provide brain-prostheses, which circumvent damaged parts of the visual system.
In the present project, we will investigate how spatial information can assist VIs during navigation by non-invasive and invasive information delivery.We will make use of mult…
