Person presents her scientific poster on a kalman filter model of human echolocation to a group of three people in a large room filled with other presenters during a poster session. The image is from a top-down angled view.

A gif of a person presenting her scientific poster on a kalman filter model of human echolocation to a few people. The gif contains two altering images of the person with different funny facial expressions as they explain their poster. The images are from behind the listeners, with the backs of their heads, with a direct view of the speaker.

Thank you #imrf2025 for providing the space to share ideas and to all the people who were interested in our Kalman Filter-based echolocators and provided valuable comments. The poster session was a blast!

And thanks @echodislocation.bsky.social for capturing only the best facial expressions!

Sure, you can download this version here docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

And yes, there have been studies showing that even sighted humans can be trained to echolocate!

Was really looking forward to finally attending after so many years of not being able to due to visa and political issues, and now that I'm inside so many people worth seeing in person are not coming due to a different set of political issues πŸ™ƒ

B.t.w. I get that the society is being put in an exceptionally bad situation. I don't envy them at all. And I am sure they did not want to change this, but felt like their hand was forced. That said -- we should resist. Is there any other choice?

Been caught up in life, but glad to finally announce that I've started my postdoc journey into EEG & perception in the absence of vision with @echodislocation.bsky.social at @skeriresearch.bsky.social. Here's to lots of new exciting things to learn & understand, that'd hopefully help those in need!

The irony is that it all started with me trying to fix the blsk icon not rendering in the contacts block. Several weeks later and the site is mostly done but the missing icon is still an issue. I did learn a lot though, so I'd call it a success!
