Hey Justin (and others),
Thanks for posting this. It's good to keep abreast of how afraid the sighted
world is of blindness. For, I believe that's the only thing this technology
is good for. To relate it to braille is absolutely ludicrous, as there's no
way anyone could read using this technology at greater than 1 or 2 words per
minute. In fact, I'm sure it would be faster to learn to read braille with
your tongue. Secondly, I find it impossible to believe that anyone could
identify an object faster or more accurately with that device than the
average blind person could with their hands. And lastly, I can think of more
pleasant things I could do with my tongue than cover it with electrodes!
Peace,
chris
