Most people with hearing and vision disabilities are not in absolute darkness and silence from birth: they remember the visual and auditory sensations from the past, many have residual vision, and the features of perception depend on the specific disease and its limitations. To better understand deafblind people, try to go through the online game that launched the fund "Union".

Users are offered a simple task - to guess what object is in front of them, by choosing one of four options. With each level, the task is complicated by filters that are created on the basis of the medical description of various visual features and diseases. At the same time, users can "feel" the texture of objects using audio effects that mimic the touch of a spiky hair brush or a smooth egg surface. At the last, fifth level, you immerse yourself in the world of a person without sight - you only have to focus on sound.
