PLATYPUS
Feel Your World
A revolutionary wearable navigation device using bio-inspired electroreception sensors to help visually impaired people feel their surroundings through haptic feedback on their palm. Map complex spaces in real-time while UV sensors alert you before entering intense sunlight.
A blind user puts on the device and suddenly can 'feel' a corridor opening to their left through a gentle vibration pattern on their palm. They confidently navigate a hospital labyrinth they've never visited, and when approaching a sun-drenched exit, their palm pulses warmly - their skin needs sunscreen.
