Táctic
Tactile Interface for the Deaf-Blind
TacTIC is an industrial research project undertaken within the framework of the Avanza R&D Subprogram (TSI-020100-2009-639).
The project's main objective is to develop a form of communication and access to content, both through the Internet as well as in everyday activities, for people who are deaf and blind. To achieve this goal, a tactile stimulation device on a glove will be designed and implemented as the physical base for the solution. At the same time, interfaces between the device and the computer and the necessary applications will be developed, and communications will be facilitated by making the device easy and convenient to use anywhere, both for accessing and interacting with the content as well as communicating with people.
The entire process will take into account the real needs of the future users as well as their impressions on the partial results to ensure that the end product is genuinely useful.
