In this opening clip from "Tech for Good," CNN speaks with South Korean percussionist Kyungho Jeon, whose blindness meant his dream of playing in an orchestra initially seemed out of reach. With designer Vahakn Matossian, Jeon then co-created the haptic baton, a wearable device that converts movements into vibrations – allowing him to be led by a conductor and perform with an ensemble. Jeon tells me: "This device can open new possibilities. Now I have the chance of joining an orchestra using this haptic baton. A stage has opened for me."
