Project title: Cathedra: Auditory Lounger
Description: To demonstrate the commercial potential of a new audio-tactile lounge chair dedicated to restoring auditory information for hearing-impaired listeners in concert venues and opera houses. Like busses have seats reserved for elderly people, every venue should be equipped with specific chairs that convey auditory information through vibrations and bone conduction to increase accessibility to audience members with hearing impairment.
