Hello Haptic: Tactile Learning For The Visually Impaired

Samsung Design Membership has nurtured the talents of  up-and-coming designers for over 15 years, and manages to consistently deliver award-winning innovation in the process.

One of their latest concepts, which earned them a 2009 Silver International Design Excellence Award, is Hello Haptic — sets of tactile flash cards for the blind.

The cards are categorized according to specific environments, such as “Zoo”, “Beach”, or “Forest”, and include braille on one side and tactile elements on the other, so as to offer visually impaired students a multi-faceted learning experience that stimulates the senses.
