Disney Research has done some interesting work on touch screens for the visually impaired.

One of the side benefits of this kind of tech -- for everyone, not just visually impaired -- is being able to experience otherwise untouchable objects (camera takes an image, you touch the screen instead of the object).
- canistr 13y agoInterestingly enough, FastCoDesign also had an article about a bunch of these guys. One person in particular, Ivan Poupyrev who is cited at the bottom of the above Teslatouch article, is slated to move to Motorola (furthermore Google). http://www.fastcodesign.com/3024801/motorola-just-hired-one-of-the-worlds-greatest-interaction-designers http://www.fastcodesign.com/3024801/motorola-just-hired-one-... Should be fascinating what Google/Motorola will do with this relatively unknown hire of a HCI/UX guru.
