The SoundShirt
Enabling the deaf to feel, not hear the music
The SoundShirt brings media to life for the deaf and hard of hearing. While wearing the shirt during a concert, the hearing impaired can experience music through real-time haptic feedback.
The SoundShirt can be controlled through an app, and allows for music to also be felt on the move.
