The 'Ehsaas' Braille watch has been designed by Nikhil Kapoor as a wearable timepiece for those with visual impairments to help them stay informed of the time in a manner that doesn't rely on eyesight. The watch maintains a sleek, minimalist design that is equipped with electronic active polymer on the face that will shift throughout the day to communicate the time to the wearer. A specially positioned part on the bottom of the watch lets wearers know which way it's supposed to be worn on the wrist.
The 'Ehsaas' Braille watch concept identifies what can be done to make conventional products more accessible by using existing technologies that only require being repurposed in thoughtful ways.
