Arduino ☛ This haptic glove could help deafblind people communicate
This device essentially does the same thing that Anne Sullivan did with Helen Keller: it communicates via touch sensations. Specifically, those sensations are vibrations coming from tiny eccentric motors embedded into the “e-yarn” textile of the glove over the fingers.
