Based on relatively recent research it appears that the answer is “no”.

Personally, I could. But no one else can

I know the discovered answer is no, but I refuse to believe it

of course you could. humans have basic counting abilities and one would be able to count the number of distinct corners on a cube. a sphere doesn’t

I’m leaning no, given they were blind their whole life they would not know what corners or smooth surfaces look like, even after feeling them

I’d say very likely not. People here who feel “obviously it’s yes of course!” have a lot of false assumptions about how the brain works and develops.

I would say yes because they would realize that the shape with edges was told to be a cube and a shape with no edges was a sphere. I think they would-

yes, b/c they have spacial concepts. Corners 'stick out', just like noses and door handles

This will be debunked. A nonsighted person still has a 3d construct of reality up down left right.

It probably depends on their ability to correlate the trajectory of their hands and the objects they handled.

this comes down to how wired they are from a proprioception perspective & how rapidly they are able to translate from that memory to visual processing

I think the big thing with why people think "yes" is because of an assumption that a blind person with sight would know how to process the new type

Brandon Marrs :
I would say yes bc if they put their hand flat on the cube when feeling it why wouldn’t they be able to tell the sphere doesn’t reach the same height

if you drag your finger on a cube, it will fall off the edge. it's won't do that on a sphere. looking at cubes, the angles are much steeper than a

I feel like it strongly relies on how the blind people procieve information. those that process information in a 3 dimensional way might be better-

A sphere feels uniform all over. A cube has 3 distinct types of surface. So to ID the sphere just look for something that is same all over.

Id say no because on my assumptions they wouldnt be able to imagine the look of something if vision is foreign to them. They’d know one was sharp and

i mean, i think yes, they still have hands right, can't they just compare parts in the body with the edges or lack of thereof. the tip of the finger+

I don’t get why the answer is no .. I assume children may not have formed that part of reasoning in their brain perhaps ..but it’s yes

I found it hard to believe it's a no, but after racking my head on it, best explanation I could think of is: drawing a straight line blindfolded...
