In the world there are more and more "smart" gadgets. But most of them carry nothing but a slight simplification of everyday tasks. For example, viewing the notification on the watch, not on the phone, photographing by pressing the eyeglasses, and not on the trigger of the camera and so on. But apart are "smart" devices that can really benefit. For example, the recent development of Ford - glass, which will enable blind people to "see" the landscape outside the window.
Technology "smart" glass was called Feel The View. It is a special device that is attached to the top of the car glass. Passenger car, suffering from visual impairment, can press the button on the control unit, after which the device will take a picture of what is happening outside the window. Then the frame is translated into a high-contrast monochrome image, which is displayed on the glass with the help of vibrations created by vibration motors.
To each shade of color there corresponds a certain type of vibration, the total number of which is 255. Thus, a weakly seeing person can get tactile information in approximately the same way as when touching special paintings for blind people.
