You're right
For sure; i agree, great production team and a great cause for attention.
This is an inspiring application of an old saying.
"Neurons that fire together wire together."
Hebbian learning
So proud of inventors like them. I hope everyone supports them.
So what you're saying is, earth benders can see with their feet.
@@PandaBear-qy8oq I can be aware of others walking in the house through the wood with mostly my feet
@@PandaBear-qy8oq same way sonar mapping works; sound is converted to geometric extrapolation of discrepancy~diversity in the overal tapestry that is visualized as an interactive map of your environment... blah blah blah "a world on fire, do ya wann go for coffee?"
Netflix Daredevil was a great series, the first two seasons at least.
@@PandaBear-qy8oq The same way you can tell if your neighbours are doing it
I am hard of hearing. Anything and everything out there that can help us hear and communicate better will feel appreciated. However, they should NOT be expensive. Especially when it comes to hearing aids and hearing devices.
I completely agree with you they should make them affordable especially for those who don’t make much. Medicaid can cover but so much.
Our power to create and solve problems is like nothing else “I’m only human” that’s a lot
Yeah agree. And science is beautiful
*generate, not "create."
They are doing real human-centered products, meaningful design!
Thank you for everything. Love you audiologists. Shout out to the hard of hearing
-shout-
The principle is so simple, what a great idea…
I am an Audiologist based in South Africa and I find this pretty mind-blowing especially the Neosensory wristband for people with a profound hearing loss❤️❤️
How does it make any sense the dark skinned guy likes music if he cant hear or hear almost nothing?.
I think the guy you're talking about gets vibrotactile feedback when he has the wristband on. So, instead of hearing the sound he can actually feel it. Rewatch the video from 4:40 where the CEO of Neosensory explains how the wristband is tonotopically arranged from low to high frequencies similar to how the cochlear works. Assuming that the guy (Phillip) has a severe-to-profound hearing loss then my best bet is that he can literally feel the sound/vibrations on his wrist when he's playing music and that is how he gets to enjoy music. I think in the beginning he had to learn to associate certain "vibrations" with certain sounds e.g. sound vibrations of a baby crying are different from when someone is speaking, hence he could sign "baby" when they played the sound of a baby crying.
They also mentioned sensory substitution for the Deaf in the video
@@kutlwanolekaowa6110 Ok so my qualm about it is correct I guess. That saying he enjoys music is a stretch in the sense of how it's really meant to be perceived and enjoyed.
@@kutlwanolekaowa6110 Like I would imagine it's impossible for him to get inspired from it for example.
@@johndor7793 It's definitely different than the way we hearing people perceive music. However, sound is frequency interpreted through our ears. Through the skin, they are perceiving those frequencies too, just on a a different medium so to speak. It's still possible to love the rhythm and be inspired by it.
Okay, this is how human beings should be, and coming together and invent things that helps others humans who have disabilities. Thank you guys for inventing this great technology.
it wud be interesting to add another device and test for directional sound processing. I can see an application for military and civilian security using the map of vibrations to monitor motion detection around a building and instantly know where it is coming from and other factors. also for use in home security to monitor a home for trespass while sleeping and where the trespass was detected. I can see this as an alternate way of receiving audio data for hearing people. to be able to have multiple streams of audio data and tune in to what you want to listen to, merely by focusing your brain on the selected vibration. I can see stock traders using this to monitor a particular 1 or more stocks that they are following for prices. I would like to see the test results of it being used by stock traders. And could it effectively be used in place of a speaker on a phone to conduct a conversation? And what is currently the maximum number of words it has been able to decipher and what is the maximum speed of words coming in can it decipher so far?
I really love the positive vibes of Phillip
It warms my heart to see such advancements in sensory innovation directly correlated to the brain for the neediest of the humans amongst us. I give my deepest gratitude and blessings to all the creators involved in this phenomenal humanitarian developments.
Love the innovation and the editing is great
This is by far some of the most interesting science and engineering to me.
When he said "Adding new senses to what we perceive reality is", I wonder if that's the same feeling as to people who has synesthesia says that they can taste color or see music or even smell textures. I personally would want to experience the feeling of feeling the vibrations from the colors of the rainbow for example. How depressive purple can be, how angry red is, how relaxed yellow feels like, how scared black feels etc.
Kudos to the people working on this!
That's crazy. I love it!!!! I hope this product become available to all with hearing problems. Plus that vest could help me figure out how close I am to people or objects. Sooo cool
I saw that TED talk some time ago and was excited by the possibilities. I'm really glad to find out they, and others, are developing the idea into real products. I love the idea of extending senses. Decades ago i read about a belt that kept you aware of the direction of north, to make navigation and self-location easier. Something like these products might make it possible for blind people to navigate in open environments more easily. Yay for all of this!
This really moved me. I hope research on this will continue to bear even greater fruits. Thank you very much!
Hand gestures of Presenter adds great clarity for special audience. Great job 👏🏼
Proving that real understanding comes from multiple sources at multiple times and that you may lose understanding through the lose of a sense but there's more data in sound than just the ability hear. This is a fantastic piece of equipment.
That's so nice.i hope it's cheap enough for most deaf people
I’ve just had an insight: wearing two wristbands would enable the guy to have some stereo perception? I think that in this case, he would benefit even more, while walking down the street…
how did they not think of that!
Probably testing it.
The hand far away from the source could vibrate in a different way
hes able to hear emotion in other peoples voices,, thats beautiful 🥺🥺🥺
Philip is absolutely adorable. His smile is contagious! 💖
This is mind-blowing and meaningful at the same time.
This device is very smart sound is a form of vibration so turning sound vibration into actual physical vibration is extremely smart idea
This is excellent. Technical Remote Viewing is a great neurological example as all, and more natural senses are available without ANY direct connection to the impressions. Physical sensing is a byproduct of natural abilities inhetent within the spectrum of Consciousness.
This invention isn't new in fact the man who conceived the idea was threatened death or being imprisoned about 30 years ago
This is amazing, it proves there are higher dimensions we're not aware of...
No it doesn't xD
1:55 his smile is contagious
Big thanks to all the innovators bridging the gap between the average and the disabled.
Born deaf, parents found out when he was 5.....what? 😳
They were probably working 3 jobs, or something like that. Not all parents are the same:D. But i reacted the same though, just didn't wanna judge them out of the blue😂😂
That’s how it was for me too. Doctors didn’t think to cover the mouth when checking my hearing.
Such an awesome project!
Philip is one beautiful human being
Was surprised to see David Eagleman. Love his book, "Incognito"
Awesome, great for those with disabilities
Revolutionary now & future applications
This is really cool and smart and Phillip is a really cute guy but i am very sad that we dont have one univeral used sign language yet. Its probably reall difficult for them to adapt to a new country
The same way it would be hard for an English speaker in a non English speaking country. There is no true universal language if you think about it, so it’s not too different in that aspect.
@@daviniquesmall5597 i dont mean a true universal language just one language that use all deaf people. Otherwise they would need to learn another language and i think they already have enough trouble in life
@@PhillipAmthor I understand your point but please know a lot of Deaf people, culturally deaf I mean, don’t see their Deafness as a disability this don’t see this as a trouble. We don’t want to be ableist. But I understand if you have no knowledge of the deaf community it’s a hard concept 😊
Hearing Wrist band coupled with Ai yields better detailed description of the environment.
Ai enabled high sensitive hearing Wrist band could far outperform human audible sensory.
This is SO FREAKING COOL!
You know if you think about it, blind and deaf people are like main characters in animes where they can "sense" people's presence around them without looking or knowing their location. They're like real life superheroes!
Take it to the next level with multiple sensors. Just multiple of the same sensor or different sensors on different parts of the body. The deaf will have better hearing than most of us.
Thank you. But how can it be more commercially available?
They pretend as if brain plasticity, which is in my opinion the driving factor behind this principle, is almost instantaneous.
Well... brain plasticity is a very very slow process, so it will take many many years for a person to have some real benefits of this device.
Simple yet amazing idea 😊
My first thought is what people with synasthesisea would make of it. This obviously comes in different forms and there would be ne single answer. But I'm confident it would register in tastes and smells aplenty.
As for me, I'm harking back to the Bionic Man and scenes from Daredevil where a visual representation formd from ...acoustic stimuli.
Moreover, music would never be quite the same again too, for I'd be experiencing on would allude to a physical, almost visceral basis.
Wait, so a new patient will have to learn from beginning, right? To learn what vibration pattern and strength means what? Like learning to understand a new language
it's been a long time to see Japanese innovation
Enhancing the human mind begins with changing the way we sense the world around us. Those with sensory disabilities provide us with an outlet to truly understand how we work, the human brain is capable of so much.
I love your videos about those inventions. But how about subtitles with some contrast? White text on a white shirt... quite hard to read at least for me with a visual impairment.
Revolutionary!
All of our senses are varying degrees of one sense, the sense of Touch. We perceive nothing unless something physically contacts our sensors. Yes even our eyes.
How does the buzzing transfer the sound to dead ear
This is amazing!
I had to turn up the volume to hear this... Can I buy one?
I would really love a variant of this product being turned into a new platform for gaming💓💓... The experience would be mind blowing 🤯🤯🤯🤯
I had the same idea as the wrist one, though it looks like they probably had it first.
In future, everyone will have spidey-sense 😇, it's amazing that this device can also detect and feel IR.
This is what science is for.
One of the best inventions, hatsoff folks
Can it be on a smartphone too? Is the taptic engine on an iPhone precise enough for this type of application?
I wouldn't think so as the sensors aren't dispersed throughout the device, and the microphone wouldn't be precise enough either. However, that being said, I am sure that the skin would be able to adjust to it and work just as well! Better start a GitHub account!
This is beautiful
This is wonderful!
Pair the vest with an FPV drone and you basically have sixth sense like what the Assassins from Assassin's creed have with their eagles.
I predict this tech will be incorporate with VR tech & we will have ultimate game experience.
I like it, simple idea, it would not work exactly like ears but I think it may recreate about 70% of sounds' feelings
Wow this is really amazing to think this is achievable with something as simple as computer processed vibration
make me wonder what we can do with something like brainwave ?
yeah maybe in future those vr devices in anime "sword art online" which can feed not only audio but also VISUAL signal to the brain via brain will really come true!
both our brain and technology are amazing.
I want the stock market one.
Beautiful!
Can you make it detect feelings ?
Ok I’m gonna make something that relays the market to me through vibrations. To the moon!
Wow...,thats amazing
Some info links to the devices would be helpful
this is amazing tech.
I read a book about 70 years ago called seeing with the skin. It claimed that we can see images on the skin. I tested the theory and yes you can!!
What is the name of the book!?
@@mohammedahmed1109
Sorry i dont remember , it might have been a Russian book but 70 years is long time to remember details. Try looking for " seeing with the skin".
Ronald
@@rondoc1936 thanks man 👍🏻
Stock market and twitter sentiment? This really is the worst time line.
i immediately thought this too. Twitter sentiment could also be thought of as feeling emotion through text in general though which could also be a book or text on your phone. Stock market definitely should've been left out
Great stuff 💾
amazing 💗
What about conversation? How successful is it with that?
Where to buy?
Who has read Daemon and Freedom by Daniel Suarez? This is the same technology used by Loki Stormbringer to detect his drones and razorbacks. Really amazing stuff!
How do I find a sensory substitution for deaf?
Awesome!
Amazing. just amazing
I wonder if they can do this for sight too.
Amazing stuff
Unreal how ingenuous this is. I wish these sort of projects receive millions of $$’s of funding so they can perfect this technology. This is the sort of technology’s we need. Not Tik Tok and social media.
You need Left & right
where can I buy this?
Science is beautiful:-)
This is so cool
im not deaf and if i'm gonna put on one of those ontenna will it buff my senses and feel the environment around me more
Couldn't hurt. I have trouble with sensory scrambling when there's too much noise, like, I can't pick up individual voices just vague word mush, I wonder what it could do for me, if anything.
Love your idea...
But vibration like this would consume lot of battery,right?
That means u need very big rechargeable battery...?
Philip please use it on both hands to hear with both years 🙏 💜
@jfagiag faeiea why?
Yeah, but how do you buy it? Can't find it anywhere on the internet
It's probably still being worked on
Amazing.
