  • Echolocation as an Accessible Navigation Tool in a Virtual 3D Environment

    Mai Ricaplaza Thøgersen, Rasmus Jens Frølich Kjeldsen · 2024 · Assets '24: Proceedings of the 26th International ACM SIGACCESS Conference on Computers and Accessibility

    This paper investigates whether active echolocation — emitting a sound and interpreting its echo — can serve as a viable navigation tool for blind and low-vision (BLV) individuals in virtual 3D environments. Virtual spaces remain overwhelmingly visual, lacking the physical and…
