Coughlan Lab
The goal of our laboratory is to develop and test assistive technology for blind and visually impaired persons that is enabled by computer vision and other sensor technologies.
Labs
Eye-Head Movement Laboratory
Our laboratory is interested in the mechanisms of eye and head movement and coordination and how those mechanisms are altered when visual or vestibular inputs are compromised.
Good Lab
Our laboratory studies the conditions which cause monocular or bilateral blindness in infants and children.
Heinen Lab
Our laboratory studies eye movements to understand basic neural circuitry that moves the eyes for clear vision, and as a tool to probe mental processes that are distinctly human. Our ultimate goal is to understand the substrate of neurological function and dysfunction, leading to development of non-invasive diagnosis and therapy for brain trauma and psychiatric disorders.
Hou Lab
The research in my lab focuses on the sensory processing in binocular vision and its disruption by amblyopia and strabismus. The current project is to use EEG source imaging combined with psychophysics and pupil tracking to investigate the role of selective visual attention in interocular suppression, as well as the spatial and temporal dynamics of visual processing in people with disrupted binocularity.
Likova Lab
The main areas of my research are learning and brain plasticity of multimodal sensorimotor processing in the blind and the sighted.
Teng Lab
We aim to better understand how people perceive, interact with, and move through the world, especially when vision is unavailable. To this end, the lab studies perception and sensory processing in multiple sensory modalities, with particular interests in echolocation and braille reading in blind persons. We are also interested in mobility and navigation, including assistive technology using nonvisual cues. These are wide-ranging topics, which we approach using a combination of psychophysical, neurophysiological, engineering, and computational tools.
Tyler Lab
My research centers on human visual neuroscience and computational vision, especially in the areas of stereoscopic depth, form, symmetry, and motion perception in adults, and the development of noninvasive tests for the diagnosis of eye diseases. A longterm focus of the lab is on theoretical, psychophysical, oculomotor and fMRI studies of the integration of cues to the full scope of 3D depth perception. We are particularly interested in the normal capabilities of binocular eye movement control and its disruption by forms of traumatic brain injury. Another current concern is the development of…
Tyler Lab
Research in human visual perception and the diagnosis of eye diseases.
Verghese Lab
Our laboratory studies the mechanisms of healthy vision and action, as well as the basis of attention and visual adaptation in clinical populations.
