Losing our relationship with our environmental conditions may reduce our cognitive abilities to understand them, and so to interact within. Through the SENSIVISE virtual space, we analyzed the perceptual abilities of 27 visually impaired people and 6 controls to perceive and interact while achieving requested tasks based on global or objects perception and recognition. We also tested the contribution of SENSIVISE's adaptations in improving performance and perception. Our results show a large variability of the performance among participants with low vision, according to visual deficiency, task features, and environmental conditions.
