  • SELF-IMPROVEMENT

Feelix is a revolutionary aid & handheld device for the blind & visually impaired that does not recognize obstacles by bumping into them like a white cane, but scans the environment using a 3D sensor. The recorded information is transmitted to your fingertips in real time as tactile touch signals. The small, built-in pins make it feel as if you have extended, virtual fingers with which you can feel your surroundings. This allows you to recognize obstacles early on & avoid them effortlessly. After a few minutes of training, Feelix is ​​ready for use. More Information: https://feelix.world

    01. What is Feelix for the blind?

    My system measures distances optically and transmits this information as pressure on the fingertips with several pins. Imagine you have a small handheld device with several pins in your hand. This is Feelix, my system. Feelix, with two E's, as in the word “Feel”. Feelix can measure the distance to objects and people, such as a wall or a person. This distance is then transferred as pressure to your fingertips. The closer you get to the wall or person, the stronger the pressure on your fingers. This allows you to feel the distance to objects and people, even if you can't see them. And the best thing is: you don't have to touch them! It feels like you're touching them with your fingers, but in reality it's just pressure on your fingers. So you can't hurt or infect yourself. You can even feel fine details, such as the shape of a face or the contours of an object.If you want to find out more about Feelix, take a look at my Kickstarter campaign. There you will find detailed descriptions and you can support Feelix if you are interested. The address is www.feelix.world/kickstarter. I hope Feelix can help you experience the world in a new way. If you have any questions, just get in touch. Thomas
