Guillaume Tatur obtained his License degree in general physics and a research oriented Master degree in Robotics and Intelligent Systems at the University Pierre and Marie Curie, Paris. His Master project “Definition of experiments for tactile perception of space”, related to studies on sensory supplementation devices, was his first contact with researches dedicated to visually impaired individuals.
In 2011, he obtained a PhD degree on prosthetic vision from the University of Montpellier 2 / Ecole des Mines d’Alès. This study was conducted in collaboration with the ARAMAV institute, a center of low vision functional rehabilitation, and concerned a new approach for extraction and representation of scene informational content that was applied in order to improve autonomy in mobility and to assist non-verbal communications.
Guillaume worked as a researcher at the University Hospital of Nîmes, continuing his doctoral work and leading experiments in order to study the effects of visual impairments on mobility performances and visual exploration behaviors. For the later, his work focused on the conception and development of clinical research projects and the associated experimental tools based on virtual reality, motion tracking and eye-tracking devices.
In parallel, he graduated from University Paris-Descartes for a complementary training concerning “compensatory techniques for low vision rehabilitation”. The main purpose of this complementary training was to expand his knowledge in the field of low vision and functional rehabilitation and to ease the communication and collaborative works with low vision professionals.
Keywords: Low vision, visual prosthesis, functional rehabilitation, virtual reality, computer vision, motion tracking, eye-tracking, autonomy, orientation and mobility, visual aid, humain-machine interface.
