    With advances in technology many new gadgets are coming up that assist the differently abled people to lead a normal life. One of these is Ripple, which enables a hearing impaired person to feel music. Designed by Jackson McConnell this speaker uses the vibration of music to stimulate a deaf person’s brain and contains an oscilloscope to show the wave patterns of the sound. With multi-leveled vibration inputs, the needles rise and lower synchronously to give the person a feel of the sound and also visualize the frequency on the oscilloscope. Thus allowing a hearing impaired person to feel and enjoy the music.
