NeuroSensory and the V.E.S.T.
Perhaps they do even more based on survey question at end: "How are you interested in NeoSensory technology?" Augmenting my gaming experience, Developing or hacking with the technology, Participating in the research, And beyond! (other new senses) http:// neosensory.com/
The VEST (Versatile Extra-Sensory Transducer) takes in real-time streams of information and maps it to unique patterns of vibrations on the body that you will learn to recognize subconsciously. https://

"… through providing an open API, in combination with machine learning and some sort of feedback we expect to see individuals customise VEST with the sorts of data they want. It is likely to lead to some exciting use cases." https:// motherboard.vice.com/en_us/article/8qxjmg/rewiring-the-brain-to-create-new-senses

AUTISM research
Researchers in Eagleman's lab are also studying sensory processing dysfunction (SPD), which is a hallmark characteristic of autism. People with this disorder have temper tantrums and other extreme reactions when exposed to particular tastes, sounds, textures or other stimuli. http:// www. latimes.com/health/la-he-synesthesia-brain-20120220-story.html
