Deliver knowledge at your fingertips with Touch-Hear

You must have gone through some of the freaky, but sometimes realistic concept designs, that guarantees you a better life style. But today, I stumbled upon something even more odd.
Have you ever thought of reading with your finger tips? That’s right, there is one awesome concept that will let you search and discover related content by running your fingers across these letters and have its meaning or description whispered into your ear.
The images shown above, are of Touch-Hear , that depicts about the tiny sensors at the tips of the fingers, while the corresponding white vocal device positioned on the ear, produces the necessary sound when fingers are scrolled onto a page.
With this device, searching from Google or peeping into your dictionary again and again for the same words, will become a thing of the past!
Unfortunately, there is no word by its creators at Design Incubation Centre as to how it will deal with different languages, or whether it would be available or not. Lets hope and see whether this New concept will ever make it to the production line.



Wow… this is pretty amazing. I still don;t see how the sensors recognize the words? Does it read the ink, Like a scanner can tell light from dark?
I was wondering the same. Some of its features are still unknown. May be it works like a photo coping machine! I mean, it could be using the same technique.
That looks amazing , Would love to give it a try , if provided with an opportunity
