Cross-Modal Guidance for Out-of-View Object Search in Simulated Prosthetic Vision
Adyah Rastogi, Apurv Varshney, Tobias Höllerer +1
Out-of-view guidance is well established in virtual and augmented reality, but its effectiveness may depend on the visual bandwidth available to the user. We test this under simula…
Evaluating Closed-Loop EEG Feedback for Simulated Prosthetic Vision in Immersive VR: A Sham-Controlled Feasibility Study
Ruyi Cao, Lily M. Turkstra, Adyah Rastogi +1
Visual prostheses require users to interpret sparse and distorted artificial percepts through active visual search. We developed an EEG-guided neuroadaptive training platform for s…
Actionable Guidance Outperforms Map and Compass Cues in Demanding Immersive VR Wayfinding
Apurv Varshney, Lily M. Turkstra, Jiaxin Su +5
Navigation aids are central to immersive virtual reality (VR) experiences that involve physical locomotion. Their effectiveness depends not only on how much spatial information the…
Bionic Vision as Neuroadaptive XR: Closed-Loop Perceptual Interfaces for Neurotechnology
Michael Beyeler
Visual neuroprostheses are commonly framed as technologies to restore natural sight to people who are blind. In practice, they create a novel mode of perception shaped by sparse, d…
Navigating the Last Mile: Evaluating Head- and Cane-Mounted Cameras for Egocentric Spatial Awareness
Apurv Varshney, Lucas Nadolskis, Tobias Höllerer +1
Robust navigational guidance is an important XR application for both sighted and non-sighted populations. In this paper, we mainly focus on blind pedestrians, who continue to face…
Assistive technology use in domestic activities by people who are blind
Lily M. Turkstra, Tanya Bhatia, Alexa Van Os +1
People who are blind employ unique strategies when performing instrumental activities of daily living (iADLs), often relying on multiple sensory modalities and assistive technologi…
Deep Learning-Based Perceptual Stimulus Encoder for Bionic Vision
Lucas Relic, Bowen Zhang, Yi-Lin Tuan +1
Retinal implants have the potential to treat incurable blindness, yet the quality of the artificial vision they produce is still rudimentary. An outstanding challenge is identifyin…
Immersive Virtual Reality Simulations of Bionic Vision
Justin Kasowski, Michael Beyeler
Bionic vision uses neuroprostheses to restore useful vision to people living with incurable blindness. However, a major outstanding challenge is predicting what people 'see' when t…
A Systematic Review of Extended Reality (XR) for Understanding and Augmenting Vision Loss
Justin Kasowski, Byron A. Johnson, Ryan Neydavood +2
Over the past decade, extended reality (XR) has emerged as an assistive technology not only to augment residual vision of people losing their sight but also to study the rudimentar…
Towards Immersive Virtual Reality Simulations of Bionic Vision
Justin Kasowski, Nathan Wu, Michael Beyeler
Bionic vision is a rapidly advancing field aimed at developing visual neuroprostheses ('bionic eyes') to restore useful vision to people who are blind. However, a major outstanding…
Deep Learning--Based Scene Simplification for Bionic Vision
Nicole Han, Sudhanshu Srivastava, Aiwen Xu +2
Retinal degenerative diseases cause profound visual impairment in more than 10 million people worldwide, and retinal prostheses are being developed to restore vision to these indiv…
