Head-Mounted Sensory Augmentation Device: Comparing Haptic and Audio Modality
This paper investigates and compares the effectiveness of haptic and audio modality for navigation in low visibility environment using a sensory augmentation device. A second generation head-mounted vibrotactile interface as a sensory augmentation prototype was developed to help users to navigate in such environments. In our experiment, a subject navigates along a wall relying on the haptic or ...
متن کاملA portable tactile sensory diagnostic device.
Current methods for applying multi-site vibratory stimuli to the skin typically involve the use of two separate vibrotactile stimulators, which can lead to difficulty with positioning of stimuli and in ensuring that stimuli are delivered perfectly in phase at the same amplitude and frequency. Previously, we reported a two-point stimulator (TPS) that was developed in order to solve the problem o...
متن کاملPhox ears: a parabolic, head-mounted, orientable, extrasensory listening device
The Electronic Fox Ears helmet is a listening device that changes its wearer’s experience of hearing. A pair of headmounted, independently articulated parabolic microphones and built-in bone conduction transducers allow the wearer to sharply direct their attention to faraway sound sources. Joysticks in each hand control the orientations of the microphones, which are mounted on servo gimbals for...
متن کاملA Head-Mounted Device for Recognizing Text in Natural Scenes
We present a mobile head-mounted device for detecting and tracking text that is encased in an ordinary flat-cap hat. The main parts of the device are an integrated camera and audio webcam together with a simple remote control system, all connected via a USB hub to a laptop. A near to real-time text detection algorithm (around 14fps for 640× 480 images) which uses Maximal Stable Extremal Regions...
متن کاملStanding balance assessment using a head-mounted wearable device
Background: The presence of accelerometers in smartphones has enabled low-cost balance assessment. Smartglasses, which contain an accelerometer similar to that of smartphones, could provide a safe and engaging platform for virtual and augmented reality balance rehabilitation; however, the validity of headmounted measurement of balance using smartglasses has not been investigated. Objective: To ...
