Abstract :
The social life connection between the blind people and the visually healthy people was not active in the past. This paper presents a prototype game designed for both the visually healthy people and the blind people. They can play together in the game in order to construct interaction between their social life´s. The visually healthy person has to put on an eye patch. The player moves an egg. The speaker then gives out the animal´s sound corresponding to the moved egg. The player has to remember the position of the egg and the sound of the animal. When the player finds a matched pair of eggs having the same animal sound. The player can take out both eggs. At the end of the game, the one having the most eggs is the winner. The hardware of the proposed game employs passive RFID technology, the Arduino microcontroller, a sound module, and a NAND Hash device.
