What if you could feel an #echo, or response to your #touch? The Tactile Echoes system measures the vibration in your fingernail and feeds back a playful audio and haptic response. tinyurl.com/yp4b9zrt

Great to meet, and learn more about this partnership. Who'd have thought an octopus🐙would have been the thing that sparked the initial connection!? meetings where we get to learn new things are great: soft robotics and computational art... 🤯

Ever experienced that middle-of-the-night panic fumbling in the dark for a light switch because you're DESPERATE for the bathroom? Haven't we all. But how does this get us thinking about the importance of 'touch'? #ImpactFellow @Sariadela_abad explains: youtube.com/watch?v=fAUnnT-K…
