Abstract

The disclosure regards a method and a system for assisting a person in assessing an environment. The method includes selecting a set of one or more entities present in the environment, obtaining coordinates in the environment and extents of each entity of the set, estimating a location and shape of each entity of the set on the basis of the obtained coordinates and extends of the respective entity, determining an area of interest on the basis of the estimated location and shape of each entity of the set, evaluating the area of interest with respect to one or more variables of interest in order to evaluate a deviation between a current state of the area of interest and a target state, and communicating the deviation from the target state to the person using coherent stimuli for stimulating the person's body.
