In this paper, to achieve the goal of aiding the blind and visually impaired (BVI) to read any text not written in Braille, a custom-built, finger-wearable, and electro-tactile based Braille reading system with its Rapid Optical Character Recognition (R-OCR) method is developed. The R-OCR is capable…
This study is designed to validate the feasibility of generating identifiable moving patterns using electro-tactile stimulation. An electro-tactile display is built using an array of 16 contacts to deliver the electrical signal to the fingertip skin. This signal can have varying voltages, frequencie…
A pixel-by-pixel scanning that is usually performed by a single point-like sensor or probe is being widely used in the applications such as scanning probe microscopy techniques. Typically, their scanning time is several seconds to minutes long due to a raster scanning that needs to be conducted for…
