In this preliminary study we address the question of the influence of handedness on the localization of targets perceived through a visuo-auditory substitution device. Participants hold the device in one hand in order to explore the environment and to perceive the target. They point to the estimated location of the target with the other hand. This preliminary results support our hypothesis that pointing is more accurate when the device is held in the right dominant hand. Dexterity has to be attributed to the active part of the perceptive system. This study has obviously to be completed but it shows how the concept of enaction is important and how it can be experimentaly addressed in the field of sensory substitution.
