Abstract:
Provided is a sensory substitution apparatus and method that combines two or more pieces of multi-sense sensory information to be converted into different multi-sense sensory information, in which received pieces of multiple information are combined to suit sensory characteristics of the user's body and efficiently transmitted to a different sensory organ. According to the present invention includes: receiving input sensory information; classifying the input sensory information; calculating an importance of each of individual sensory information; determining a target sense for which part or all of the individual sensory information, of which an importance is calculated, is to be converted into a new sensory signal incongruent with the corresponding individual sense; and converting the input sensory information into target sensory information to be transmitted to the determined target sense which is an organ.
Abstract:
Disclosed are a system and method for reproducing tactile content using spatial information, which enhances a users tactile sense of music by converting a sound of music played in a space into tactile sense in real time without any sense of difference between tactile and auditory sense and automatically correcting tactile information by reflecting a user location and spatial characteristics so that performance or image information may be realized as tactile content using spatial information and the user location.
Abstract:
A sensory substitution method includes obtaining a color image by using a sensor device, converting color information about the color image, received from the sensor device, into tactile information by using a user terminal, and generating a tactile stimulus corresponding to the tactile information received from the user terminal by using a tactile output device.
Abstract:
A videotelephony image modulation apparatus and method detects an event having a possibility of information leakage by analyzing an image and provides a secured calling mode of masking all or a part of the image and transmitting a masked image obtained through the masking.
