People are lauding the company for introducing such applications and trying to make communications easy for someone who has impaired vision and hearing or both.

Good Vibes allows the deafblind to have two-way communication with their near ones using their smartphones. Again, Relumino has been developed by Samsung employees as part of the company’s C-Lab programme globally. It is a visual aid application dedicated for people with low vision. The app reportedly helps them to see images brighter by magnifying and minimising them, highlighting the image outline, adjusting colour contrast, brightness, and reversing colour.

How to Use Samsung India Good Vibes and Relumino Apps?
The Good Vibes app reportedly uses Morse code to convert vibrations into text or voice and vice-versa. A deafblind person can send a message from the app by tapping on the screen using Morse code where all the English letters are the combinations of dots and dashes. The alphabets can be input as a short tap for a dot and long press for a dash. Similarly, incoming messages can be understood as vibrations. Small vibration means a dot and long means a dash. For people with sight and hearing, anyone can send a message by typing or speaking. The standard chat interface delivers the message to the deafblind person as Morse code vibrations.
Relumino, on the other hand, will be used in classrooms where students with low vision will be able to see better that will help them to improve their learning abilities. Samsung has partnered with the National Association for the Blind (NAB) Delhi and the company will reportedly provide training to the educations on how to use the app.
The applications are part of Samsung’s Citizenship Initiatives for which the company had aligned with Sense India; a not-for-profit dedicates to improve the lives of the deafblind. Samsung India Good Vibes app can be downloaded from the Samsung Galaxy Store, and it will soon be made available on the Google Play Store for all smartphone users.
