Check out my progress - https://youtu.be/kaoML0uVnKs

The goal of this project is to have two bracelets, one for the left wrist and one for the right wrist that convert sounds from video games to vibrations. Motors, similar to those used inside cellphones will be strategically positioned around the bracelets to give spatial positioning for the wearer. The player will be able to distinguish sounds coming from above/below, left/right, and in front/behind.

That is so amazing! Is this for all type of video games like Xbox and PlayStation because this will be very useful for my friend who has a similar problem and has recently got an Xbox and has also topped up his console's balance from https://www.press-start.com/de/4-kaufen-xbox-gift-card-50e-euro-raum/ and this product will help him a lot to enjoy playing video games to the fullest.
