Touch Hear
Have you repeatedly come across the same word in the book, but never know its exact meaning? Or chance upon a familiar French expression but do not know how to pronounce it correctly?
If we stop to jot it down or to check the diction-ary, it would have broken the flow and pleasure of reading. What if I could just run my finger across these letters and have its meaning or pronun-ciation whispered into my ear?
Touch-Hear makes obtaining additional infor-mation while reading intrinsic. By touching a word or phrase in a particular piece of reading material, the user can listen to its related information, like its pronunciation or its meaning. We examine the possibility of expanding the human potential through technological devices, innately empowering users in their everyday activities.
