  • While thinking of how he could help his friend Carlos, who is deaf and blind, experience the excitement of the World Cup, Brazilian sign language interpreter Helio Fonseca de Araujo came up with this brilliant idea. He rigged up a tabletop model of the field, and recruited his friend Regiane to provide additional assistance for all the complex information which would need to be relayed during a match. Here you can see Carlos watching the opening match of the tournament live. Helio provides sign language interpretation, which Carlos follows by feeling with his own hands (tactile signing), while Regiane provides information regarding fouls, cards, and jersey numbers with social-haptic communication on Carlos's back. Now that's amazing! Credit to Helio Fonseca de Araujo and Regiane Cunha Pereira.

    Great job! Very smart way! Would love to see technology automate this for him and people like him and give them a much better and rich experience. And we should all stop taking things for granted. Love the goal response :)

      Many legally blind people have at least a small amount of residual vision. Only about 10% have no light perception.

      He also might not be profoundly deaf. I have deaf people in my family. A few cant hear anything ( profoundly deaf) and a few can hear only muffled sounds but could never make out words.

    why is he wearing a watch?

    • @pinkladyapple325
      @pinkladyapple325 Před 7 lety +8

      He may not be 100% blind. I saw him try to look at the tv some times too. He must have a high percentage of vision loss

      You get watches where the face cover opens so you can feel the position of the hands.
