Concertgoers wear haptic suits created for the deaf by Music: Not Impossible, during an outdoor concert at Lincoln Center on July 22, 2023, in New York City. The violins reverberate in the ribcage, while cello and bass are felt a little further down, with horns in the shoulders, and more often than not, soloists in the wrists. That's one way audio expert Patrick Hanlon programs wireless haptic suits designed to enable the deaf or hard of hearing to experience orchestral music, as initiatives to improve inclusivity at live music performances break new ground. At the Lincoln Center concert, audience members tried vests featuring 24 points of vibration that translate the music onstage. (Photo by Angela Weiss/AFP Photo)
