Sens Inclusive Mobile phone concept for the visually-impaired
Created by designer Takumi Yoshida, the Sens Inclusive Mobile phone concept offers users real-time audio feedback to help visually-impaired people better interact with their phones. Specially shaped keys are all uniquely accessible making them more identifiable by touch. Since many visually impaired people have at least some ability to recognize light density or colors, the phone concept does away with text and uses color illumination to inform users of basic phone status. By creating a cellphone that can be easily used by people with visual handicaps, the designer opens up a whole new level of possibilities for creating specialized communication devices that can cater to people with special abilities and we sincerely hope Yoshida’s concept will soon be picked up by mainstream cellphone manufacturers as well.
