A new kind of loudspeaker can allow the deaf to "feel" music through their fingertips, it has been revealed.
The "Vibrato" speaker converts musical sound into vibrations that can be felt. Five finger pads respond to music in a way that allows the user to distinguish between notes, rhythms and different instruments.
By connecting the speaker to a computer, budding deaf composers can also make their own music.
