The team (Fabian & Zhou Yang) is inspired by Morse code. It is a type of character encoding system used in telecommunication. It conveys information through two different signal duration called dots and dashes. Through the use of short and long duration of vibration produced from a vibrator which correspond to the dots and dashes of the Morse code, we hope to convey information to our users.
Basic understanding of Morse code.
Concept sketch
References
We took references for the code of the vibrator from various sites to aid in our prototyping.

Vibrator motor
We use the following vibrator motor for our prototyping process:
Problems
The following are the problems we faced during the prototyping phases:
Testing of vibrator motor
Final arduino circuit
User testing
We tested out the final prototype.
We managed to condition ourselves to remember the different vibration combinations for the different functions. However, it took sometime for us to remember them. At the beginning, it was confusing to differential between the long and short vibrations. However, after some practice we are fine.
Problems faced
The following are the challenges we faced while prototyping:
