How do you make technical drawings and diagrams more accessible through braille and tactile graphics?
This month on Raising the Dots, we sit down with Vítor Carvalho from the University of Porto to explore the research and innovation helping blind and low vision people access, understand and create technical drawings.
From tactile graphics and SVG image descriptions to the principles that shape how information is presented, this episode dives into the ideas and technologies making STEM education and professional environments more inclusive.
If you're interested in accessibility, braille, tactile technology, inclusive design, or the future of assistive innovation, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.
🎧 Listen now, and if you enjoy the episode, please share it with your network to help more people discover the incredible work happening across the accessibility community.
