Description
- The Tactipad is a drawing board for blind and visually impaired people with whom they can make a tactile drawing that is immediately tangible.
- With the help of a pen, it is drawn on a plastic foil that is attached to a rubber surface. If you press firmly on the foil with a pen, you will immediately feel a tangible line.
- On the TactiPad you can make a sketch out of the loose wrist. Or you can draw exactly and dimensionally with the drawing tools like the ruler, the triangle, the protractor and the compass.
- GraphGrid and CircleFrame are optional drawing tools that expand the play and learning options in an intuitive way.
- Practical examples in which the TactiPad can be used: everyday drawings, notice board, homework for mathematics and geography, an overview map on the go or wishing cards.
- The TactiPad can also be used in combination with the TactileView drawing and production software. If a tactile drawing is made on the TactiPad, it is immediately stored in the computer. In addition to the TactiPad you will need the TactileView digital pen.
- The TactileView drawing and production software captures the drawing movements of the digital pen via a receiver. That receiver clicks with two magnets on the side of the TactiPad. All functions required for drawing can be activated with the pen. The digital pen works alternately as a drawing pen and as a clicking mouse.
