Modern smartphones come with touchscreen displays – which are not a bad thing at all, really. However, while the hard of hearing can always enjoy the use of a smartphone or featurephone because they can see, how about the visually impaired? Georgia Tech believes otherwise, and has come up with BrailleTouch – a Braille-like texting app. This prototype app for touchscreen mobile devices intends to be the complete solution to all our modern day texting problems, without having to even look at the device's display at all – which would also bode well for the visually impaired, of course.
