Spatial Competence and Brain Plasticity in Congenital Blindness via Sensory Substitution Devices
In congenital blindness (CB), tactile, and auditory information can be reinterpreted by the brain to compensate for visual information through mechanisms of brain plasticity triggered by training. Visual deprivation does not cause a cognitive spatial deficit since blind people are able to acquire sp...
