David Eagleman : Can we create new senses for humans?

David Eagleman at TED2015  (transcript)
Can we create new senses for humans?
Summary
I couldn't understand the story until l watch it.
In it, new senses have had new interfaces, for example, it’s like a sensory vest that the speaker has been wearing. It can send you wearing it some information that people in previous unseen by its vibrations.

It’s not our senses that are hearing, seeing, touching, tasting, and smelling thus it can be said that a new sense has been created for humans.

In fact, we, humans, aren’t seeing, hearing, and smelling most of the action that’s going on, our brain is surprisingly not hearing or seeing anything, all things that the brain sees are electrochemical signals and the brain figures out how to use the signals just fine.

OMG, you know, the brain has just used signals, though, it's really nice, it can be used very well if a new sense is created. Our senses can be expanding so from now, a new generation where we can feel unseen something will come.
