Learn about a new e-learning platform that allows you to create self-describing tactile graphics. Tactile Images is an iPhone app that reads graphics and attaches audio descriptions through a QR code. BVI students can explore graphics independently and instructors can create and customize their own diagrams and images through the web platform. Dan Patzelt is the founder and CEO of Tactile Images and has worked in the edtech field in Romania and globally for more than ten years, developing solutions to advance education and assistive technology for the blind and visually impaired.
