Disney Research has created “Feeling Fireworks,” a tactile firework show for the blind and visually impaired users. The tactile effects are created using directable water jets that spray onto the rear of a flexible screen, with different nozzles for different firework effects.
Their approach is not only low-cost, but it also scales well, thus offering dynamic tactile effects to be rendered with high spatial resolution. A recent showcase demonstrated that the tactile effects are meaningful analogs to the visual fireworks that they represent, with sighted users able to label the correct correspondence of tactile-to-visual effects by a large margin over chance.
