04 May SOUNDSHIRT X NUFC

“It was priceless to see the deaf children and adult fans react to the game in such an incredible manner and being able to enjoy a full immersion in the game’s atmosphere.”

“This is a historic moment as it’s the first time the SoundShirt has been used at a football match. We are beyond excited to see more fans enjoy it in future games.”

The shirts work by using conductive textiles and haptic modules that are integrated into the fabric. Broadcast microphones capture the sound around the pitch, which is then converted from analogue to digital format using specialised software. This software then transforms the crowd noise into touch data which is then wirelessly transmitted to the shirt via an antenna in real time.
