  abstract = {The aim of this paper is to introduce a novel functional
    design for an indoor and outdoor mobility assistive device for the
    visually impaired, based on the theoretical frameworks of mobility
    and spatial cognition. The originality of the proposed approach
    comes from the integration of two main aspects of navigation,
    locomotion and wayfinding. The cognitive theories which underpin the
    design of the proposed sensory substitution device, called
    TactiBelt, are identified and discussed in the framework of spatial
    knowledge acquisition. The paper is organized as follows: section 1
    gives a brief overview of the sensory substitution framework, while
    sections 2 \& 3 introduce the importance of navigation and spatial
    cognition models for the design of mobility aids. Section 4 details
    the functional design of the TactiBelt.}
