Tactonom Reader
Background
Understanding graphics with the sense of touch is a major challenge for blind and severely visually impaired people. That’s why they usually rely on the help of sighted people.
For this reason, very few tactile learning graphics are used in education: While sighted people learn with around 25,000 graphics in school, blind people use less than 100!
The Tactonom Reader solves both challenges: The Tactonom Reader enables independent learning. We cooperate with ProBlind. Thousands of tactile graphics are available for free in the “Share” database.
