For cochlear implant users, combined electro-acoustic stimulation (EAS) significantly
improves the performance. However, there are many more users who do not have any …

Attention to sensory information has been shown to modulate the neuronal processing of
that information. For example, visuospatial attention acts by modulating responses at …

Osseoperception is the sensation arising from the mechanical stimulation of a bone-
anchored prosthesis. Here we show that not only touch, but also hearing is involved in this …

Tactile vision substitution devices are assistive technologies for the blind that redirect visual
information to the tactile sense. They typically include a tactile display that conveys visual …

Tactile apparent motion can display directional information in an intuitive way. It can, for
example, be used to give directions to visually impaired individuals, or for waypoint …

Background It has long been known that a concomitantly cooled stimulus is perceived as
heavier than the same object at a neutral temperature—termed Weber's Phenomenon (WP) …

Objective Electro-acoustic stimulation (EAS) is an effective method to enhance cochlear-
implant performance in individuals who have residual low-frequency acoustic hearing. To …

How can vibrotactile stimuli be used to create a technology-mediated somatic learning
experience? This question motivates this practice-based research, which explores how the …

Sensory augmentation can be used to assist in some tasks where sensory information is
limited or sparse. This thesis focuses on the design and investigation of a head-mounted …

Touchscreens werden zunehmend im industriellen Arbeitsumfeld bei Tätigkeiten eingesetzt,
bei denen Handschuhe getragen werden, wodurch die Interaktion mit einem Touchscreen …
