Tactile silicon case allows visually impaired people to use the iPhone

Here’s an interesting idea. A designer named Bruno Fosi envisioned the silicon case pictured above to allow visually impaired people to use the iPhone. The case is engraved with modified bas-relief buttons that correspond to a modified homescreen and is should work in tandem with a specially prepared application to add accessibility functions like text to speech and moon type tactile feedback. As a result, none of the iPhone’s functions are compromised, multi-touch and finger flicking included.

In a word – brilliant! Hopefully, someone will pick the idea and actually do something about it.
