Universal Wristwatch Designed for the Visually Disabled
Brief
Time is intangible, while interestingly, the attempt to approach time from a tangible perspective seem to have been in human nature.
We rub the photos to relate to the good old days. We touch the walls in our old houses to relish the sentiment.
±8 Watch echoes that tangible perspective of time by allowing people to not only see time, but "feel" its lapse.
Simultaneously, it is an attempt to make the interface of time accessible to all population, as it is a wristwatch that is truly "universal"
in that visually disabled people could feel it through tactile feedback while others can still read it.
