Abstract
Deals with the design of an experimental sensory substitution prosthesis for rehabilitation of blindness. A conceptual model of sensory substitution is proposed, and the general principles of the prosthesis are described. Psychophysical experimentations based on this conceptual model showed performance increasing during learning
