THE ICONS
THE ICONS
As a solution we designed 5 tones of voice icons. Relaxed Tone, Happy Tone, Serious Tone, Intense Tone and Sad Tone. Each one was developed through the sense of touch and hearing to transmit the same stimulation in the brain that a normal emoji would. For the sense of touch we designed the icons in an embossed 3D format as a texture and for the sense of hearing we designed 5 melodies, each one specifically composed to produce the specific emotion in the blind person.
