Abstract:


    The interactive artwork “Thermo-messenger” is a new telecommunications device for tactile communication using the sense of warmth. It presents new possibilities for the transmission of information and the expression of tactile senses using temperature, and can be used by persons of any nationality or age, and even by persons with visual impairments or other disabilities.
