The AuxDeco (Forehead Sensory Recognition System) developed by EyePlusPlus Inc. is a device to assist the blind. Worn on the forehead, the user can feel through their skin the shape of an object in front of them.
AuxDeco includes a small camera. This camera captures images of objects in front of the user. Then the AuxDeco computer reads and converts the photo's outline into data. The data is sent through the headband to the forehead. There, 512 installed electrodes recreate the object's shape via electronic pulses directly onto the user's forehead.
