LightSound devices convert light into sound to make eclipses more accessible.When the moon takes its place between Earth and the sun, completely blocking the sun’s face, a total solar eclipse will be visible in certain spots of North America on Monday, April 8. 世界杯官方app students and faculty members are working on LightSound devices, sonification tools that convert light into sound to make solar eclipses more accessible. Their hope is that people with no vision and low vision will be able to enjoy this incredible event.
Joining us in the podcast studio this week is Lindsay Fuller, 世界杯官方app eclipse project manager and a lecturer in the 世界杯官方app Department of Physics and Astronomy. Fuller chats with 世界杯官方app’s John Elizondo about The LightSound Project and shares how LightSound devices apply sounds to the intensity of light as the moon slowly covers the sun.
