Possibilities of Graphic Representations in the Education of People with Visual Impairment Theory and Practice

Original language description

Graphic representations accompany us at every step, supplementing written and verbal modes of information transfer, and at the same time broadening our overview of the world around us, and helping us to create ideas and utilise our imagination. This article deals with graphic representations for the needs of blind people and people with severe visual impairments. For these groups, graphic representations fulfil the same task as for people without visual impairment, but it is more difficult to create these representations. However, we will show in the article that although the work is more complex, it is also more varied, and can additionally be utilised for the needs of people without visual impairments as well. This probe into graphic representations for the visually impaired will be followed by a presentation of a survey in the given area. Thanks to new technologies, graphic representations have become not only financially but also physically accessible. Our probe will focus on the perception of tactile graphics in both the narrower and broader meanings, as well as on the most common imaging techniques in the creation of maps (in the Czech Republic). In the first part of the article, we would like to take an excursion into the field of graphic representations for people with severe visual impairments - from the simpler ones (thermo-vacuum printing) to the more complex ones (3D printing in various materials). Our article will highlight individual representatives of each of the interesting and current graphic representations, as well as point out possible shortcomings of the representations of others. The creation of the article was supported by the projects - / TL01000507 - Development of independent movement through tactile-auditory means / TL03000679 - Information deficit reduction and the development of imagination of persons with visual impairments through 3D models with auditory elements, IGA_PdF_2020_007
