The Portland Trail Blazers are trailblazing with unique tech that enables fans who are blind and have low vision to follow the game.
Paralympic athlete and content creator Anthony Ferraro recently showed off tech from Seattle-based startup OneCourt. The haptic display board works by using tactile vibrations that let the user follow the ball across the court, while audio keeps them updated on the score.
