Hi all,
My father is deaf , really deaf !!. It is impossible to call him on the mobile or even have a conversation in the same room. Hearing aids do help a little but he loses them or doesn't maintain them correctly. I live of the other side of the country and would like to communicate with him.
Fortunately he does know Morse from his army days and with a bit of practice he should get those skills back
I had an idea to make a device that converts SMS to Morse code . There are plenty of examples of people using an Arduino to do this online. What I would like to do is make a wearable so it taps out a message onto his skin .
A small solenoid or similar, something like in the movies when you see card players cheating.
Can anyone suggest a part suitable for this purpose ? Something ready made that I can quickly get to work.
Thanks Paul
