The skin as a medium for sensory substitution. by Spence, C

“…One commonly discussed solution for those individuals who are blind has been to use one of a range of tactile-visual sensory substitution systems that represent objects captured by a camera as outline images on the skin surface in real-time (what Loomis, Klatzky and Giudice, 2012, term general-purpose sensory substitution devices). …”

Navigation using sensory substitution in real and virtual mazes. by Daniel-Robert Chebat, Shachar Maidenbaum, Amir Amedi

“…Is this simply due to their current lack of access to visual information or does the lack of visual information throughout development prevent the proper integration of the neural systems underlying spatial cognition? Sensory Substitution devices (SSDs) can transfer visual information via other senses and provide a unique tool to examine this question. …”

Sensory substitution: The affordance of passability, body-scaled perception, and exploratory movements. by Carlos de Paz, David Travieso, Jorge Ibáñez-Gijón, Miguel Bravo, Lorena Lobo, David M Jacobs

“…The present study illustrates how concepts and methodological tools from the theory of affordances may help to advance research in the field of sensory substitution. The sensory substitution device (SSD) that was used consisted of two horizontal rows of 12 coin motors that each vibrated as a function of the distance to the nearest object. …”
