Robot hand aids deaf and blind

A robotic device called Tatum1, developed by Tatum Robotics, translates internet-sourced weather and news reports into tactile American Sign Language for deafblind individuals. Created to aid communication for those unable to see or hear, the device allows users like Elaine Ducharme to feel and recognize signs through a robotic hand connected to a control box. Since its launch, the device has been distributed for free to eligible users and is seen as a promising technology to improve independent communication for the deafblind community.
