Without the ability to see, hear or speak, the deafblind can't express themselves. This is the challenge faced by lakhs of deafblind people in India. Samsung presents Good Vibes, a two-way communication app that enables them to communicate with family, friends or anyone else through their smartphones.
Samsung Good Vibes uses Morse Code which converts vibrations into text or voice and text or voice into vibrations. In Morse Code, letters are represented as a combination of dots and dashes. The deafblind person inputs a short tap (
dot) and a long press (dash) to form a message. While, a person with normal sight and hearing can input a message as text or voice, that is received as a combination of short and long vibrations, which the deafblind can interpret.
