CAMERA for the BLIND / 2007 / UNIVERSAL DESIGN<br />
deSIgnIng A cAMeRA for the visually-impaired seems<br />
like an absurd idea. however, many blind people will share<br />
photographs of vacations, loved ones and other memorable<br />
things to sighted people without being able to see the image<br />
themselves. This camera’s simple, physical interaction allows<br />
the visually-impaired to take digital images with accompanying<br />
audio messages for sharing with others. Additionally, the<br />
photographs could be vectorized and laser cut, creating a new<br />
service of developing physical pictures that can be “seen”<br />
through touch.
