Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Our vibrating device, which convert the audio input into vibration, aimed to support communication of deaf-blind persons. Case analyses of the preliminary experiment showed that the process of communication between deaf-blind and normal (via interpreter) were changed due to use of the system. Vibration from the system may give some mental work-load to deaf-blind person at the beginning, however, they could gradually learn the way of conversation involving it.
