AI to enhance navigation for blind and partially blind persons by exploiting sensory combination of available senses
Research questions. Can AI be used to exploit multisensory integration of non-visual signals (e.g., sound, touch, and self-motion) to provide the blind and partially blind with a rich representation of the environment for effective spatial navigation?. Read more
Sensory Navigation: Reading the Sensescape of a City
Sensory navigation proposes to introduce a novel way of experiencing the city centre of Reading, through the senses, including the visual, thermal, acoustic, visual and olfactory environment. Read more
Comparing navigation strategies in mantis shrimp and bull ants
Mantis shrimp (Stomatopoda) are marine crustaceans with extraordinary eyes, boasting up to 12 channels of colour sensitivity, 6 channels of polarization, and incredible ranges of eye movement. Read more
