VibraVest / ThinkTank
VibraVest / ThinkTank is a computational tank top that is worn,
in close contact to the body, under ordinary clothing, to afford a synthetic
synesthesia of a new sensory modality, namely radar, which gets translated
to "feel". The chirplet transform, and other DSP methodology may
detect targets accelerating toward the wearer, helping him or her avoid
bumping into things, and similarly make the wearer blind to targets that
are moving away, solving the "information overload" problem.
