NFL to Debut Real-Time Tactile Tech for Blind Fans at Super Bowl LX

NFL will test a new accessibility device for blind fans at Super Bowl LX through a partnership with startup OneCourt. Roughly 10 fans will use a handheld pad that delivers real-time tactile vibrations tracking ball movement and plays. “It will allow me to engage and enjoy the game,” said Scott Thornhill of the American Council of the Blind, calling it “getting a big part of my life back.”
