Vision Impaired Table Tennis (Swish)

Blind girl playing table tennis.

It is fantastic to see the new generation thinking outside of the box and designing games which are inclusive of the visually impaired. 

Table tennis is one of those sports that most people would likely assume is simply unplayable by people who are blind. An Australian student, however, is now using cameras and speakers to get unsighted individuals in on the ping-pong action.

Please share by learning from others who know what ideas can emerge from our fellow connections.
