Musicians rely primarily on auditory feedback when playing traditional instruments. The incorporation of multiple sensory feedback channels could potentially increase the opportunities for the hearing impaired to create musical compositions and the potential for new forms of musical expression and experiences.

Vibra, unlike traditional instruments, relies on a combination of vibrations or haptic feedback, as well as visual cues like color and composition. Designed by Ahn Taegwang, Go Yeongseok, Hwang Jimin, Lee Wonjae, modular nature of the device contains multiple instruments, from key-based to percussive, string, and even electronic.

The accompanying app supplements sensory information with a visual, graphic interface to support the conceptualization of musical notation. This allows users to recognize notes, chords, harmonies, and other complex theories through vision rather than sound.
