Synthetic Visual Sensations: Augmenting Spatial Awareness with tACS
A wearable system that elicits visual sensations using neural stimulation, allowing you to “see” behind yourself. The system maps the outputs of a distance sensor to an alternating current that stimulates the retina. We ran a human subject experiment with 12 people and found the system to increase people’s ability to spot objects behind them.
