Design a fire alarm for the deaf.

Focus on understanding the unique needs of the deaf community when designing the fire alarm. Consider alternative sensory signals such as visual alerts (flashing lights) and tactile feedback (vibrating devices) that can effectively communicate an emergency. Think about the environment where the alarm will be used—home, workplace, or public spaces—and how to ensure the design is accessible and user-friendly in those contexts. Additionally, address how the alarm can be integrated with existing safety systems and the importance of user testing with the target audience to refine your design.
