Haptica Braille watch concept for the visually impaired

haptica-watch_1.jpg All of us decide the course of events during the day with the help of wristwatches. But they’re some who’re not lucky enough to throw a quick glance at their watches. I’m talking of the visually impaired. But they still continue to occupy higher posts all over the world. So why should a term as basic as time set them down. The Haptica is a movable Braille time-piece for the visually impaired which allows the user to have a quick and accurate reading alongside maintaining user-discretion.

One can’t rule out the use of digital watches, but they’re not viable for our special users and they also seem to grab a lot of undue attention. The Haptica Braille time-piece is one of a kind which is comprehendible only by the visually impaired. Here’s a concrete explanation for the functioning of the Haptica Braille watch concept.
