<div dir="auto">I have heard of Protactile and Braille displays. I am specifically interested in deafblind people being able to use or build a tactile domain specific language (or game engine) for building various types of games, maybe multiple user ones. Remember those hand games you used to play as a kid? Are those a lost technology? Can we revive hand games with technology?</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">What’s new my deafblind research is the exploration of games as communication and language. I have not heard of ASL or Protactile games, but there appear to be books for the deaf.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">Perhaps targeting dance and drama would be more feasible?</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Jan 3, 2023 at 8:57 PM Wallyson Ruan <<a href="mailto:wallysonruan@gmail.com">wallysonruan@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left-width:1px;border-left-style:solid;padding-left:1ex;border-left-color:rgb(204,204,204)"><div dir="ltr"><div>Hey, John!<br><br>I'm not versed in the Deafblind world, but about the bit "Would deafblind people be able to create language" (ignoring all the rest), check this out: <br></div><div><a href="https://www.opb.org/article/2022/01/05/new-language-for-deaf-blind-born-in-northwest/#:~:text=It's%20not%20often%20a%20new,new%20language%20is%20Jelica%20Nuccio." target="_blank">[...] new language was born right here in the Pacific Northwest.
