Abstract

In this study, we developed fabrication technique for accessible design pamphlet for visually impaired and sighted persons. Concretely, our pamphlet with clear and colorless Braille, tactile map and a function that reads out loud the content was highly rated by its users. This research contributed towards the improvement in the accessibility of printed materials.
