System to help visually impaired people learn colors

Ana Duarte 于 2015-12-26 18:51 分享

About the solution

For people with visual impairments, color becomes important at the moment when they are embedded in a society ruled by color and, since they can’t do its apprehension, partial or total, they may feel excluded or too dependent from others.

In this regard, Feelipa was created with the aim of bringing greater autonomy to visually impaired people, enabling a better understanding of the world around them. The color code has the following key assumptions:
• Be universal and easy to learn;
• Be easily recognizable, regardless of its size;
• Always presented in relief, for easy and proper touch recognition;
• To have a logical functioning, associating primary colors to basic geometric shapes.

Through a correct access to colors, Feelipa intends to provide better quality of life, autonomy and greater appreciation of the capabilities of people who just have a different way of seeing the world.

Feelipa can be applied to numerous industries.
