Access to ordinary sports clubs or video games is limited forblind and visually impaired people (BVI) which reduces mixedability practices and social inclusion. To adapt shooting videogames and sports to BVI, we analyzed the literature to find sonification methods able to support targeting tasks. We identified fourconvenient methods ("Pitch Only", ...
Visually impaired people often face challenges in spatial interaction tasks. Sensory Substitution Devices assist them in reaching targets by conveying spatial deviations to the target through sound. Typically, sound guidance systems are evaluated by target reaching times. However, reaching times are influenced by target size and user-target distanc...

Thanks to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) it is now possible to diagnose lesions of the central nervous system (CNS) such as periventricular leukomalacia (PVL) from the first days of life. However, there are still few studies aimed at describing the relationship between MRI and the outcome of visual function in patients with PVL. To systematically...
