    Current Use and Future Perspectives of Spatial Audio Technologies in Electronic Travel Aids 
    Spagnol, Simone; Wersényi, György; Bujacz, Michał; Bălan, Oana; Herrera Martínez, Marcelo; Moldoveanu, Alin; Unnthorsson, Runar (Hindawi Limited, 2018)
    Electronic travel aids (ETAs) have been in focus since technology allowed designing relatively small, light, and mobile devices for assisting the visually impaired. Since visually impaired persons rely on spatial audio cues as their primary sense of ...

    Designing sensory-substitution devices: Principles, pitfalls and potential1 
    Kristjansson, Arni; Moldoveanu, Alin; Jóhannesson, Ómar I.; Bălan, Oana; Spagnol, Simone; Valgeirsdóttir, Vigdís Vala; Unnthorsson, Runar (IOS Press, 2016-09-21)
    An exciting possibility for compensating for loss of sensory function is to augment deficient senses by conveying missing information through an intact sense. Here we present an overview of techniques that have been developed for sensory substitution ...

    Improving the Audio Game-Playing Performances of People with Visual Impairments Through Multimodal Training 
    Bălan, Oana; Moldoveanu, Alin; Moldoveanu, Florica; Nagy, Hunor; Wersenyi, Gyorgy; Unnthorsson, Runar (American Foundation for the Blind., 2017-03)
    As the number of people with visual impairments (that is, those who are blind or have low vision) is continuously increasing, rehabilitation and engineering researchers have identified the need to design sensorysubstitution devices that would offer ...

    Relative vibrotactile spatial acuity of the torso 
    Jóhannesson, Ómar I.; Hoffmann, Rebekka; Valgeirsdóttir, Vigdís Vala; Unnthorsson, Runar; Moldoveanu, Alin; Kristjansson, Arni (Springer Nature, 2017-08-30)
    While tactile acuity for pressure has been extensively investigated, far less is known about acuity for vibrotactile stimulation. Vibrotactile acuity is important however, as such stimulation is used in many applications, including sensory substitution ...

    The Sound of Vision Project: On the Feasibility of an Audio-Haptic Representation of the Environment, for the Visually Impaired 
    Jóhannesson, Ómar I.; Bălan, Oana; Unnthorsson, Runar; Moldoveanu, Alin; Kristjansson, Arni (MDPI AG, 2016-06-27)
    The Sound of Vision project involves developing a sensory substitution device that is aimed at creating and conveying a rich auditory representation of the surrounding environment to the visually impaired. However, the feasibility of such an approach ...

    Translational research—the need of a new bioethics approach 
    Hostiuc, Sorin; Moldoveanu, Alin; Dascălu, Maria-Iuliana; Unnthorsson, Runar; Jóhannesson, Ómar I.; Marcus, Ioan (Springer Nature, 2016-01-15)
    Translational research tries to apply findings from basic science to enhance human health and well-being. Many phases of the translational research may include non-medical tasks (information technology, engineering, nanotechnology, biochemistry, animal ...

    Usability and Effectiveness of Auditory Sensory Substitution Models for the Visually Impaired 
    Csapo, Adam; Spagnol, Simone; Herrera Martinez, Marcelo; Bujacz, Michał; Janeczek, Maciej; Ivanica, Gabriel; Wersényi, György; Moldoveanu, Alin; Unnthorsson, Runar (Audio Engineering Society, 2017-05-11)
    This paper focuses on auditory sensory substitution for providing visually impaired users with suitable information in both static scene recognition and dynamic obstacle avoidance. We introduce three different sonification models together with three ...
