 Loading ... Yes, it’s true, the iPhone is a charming gadget, but it doesn’t do any good to visually impaired users. Thankfully, Bruno Fosi designed a Silicon Touch iPhone case that works with a special app and delivers all the functions needed for people with visual impairments.

 

Text to speech and moon type tactile feedback are there and the case comes with bas-relief keys associated with the iPhone’s Home screen. You won’t believe it, but there’s also multi-touch support and scrolling for the visually impaired. Great idea!
