Accessibility and Tactile Maps for blinds passengers

Versoteq tactile maps for the blind,

with added augmented reality for other users, foster better urban orientation in new surroundings.

TactMap helps organizations and businesses build accessible services and an inclusive society. Our 3D printed tactile maps capture location information into the sense of touch and hearing, helping the visually impaired, hearing impaired, as well as everyone else better navigate in a new environment. The maps include lifelike tactile objects, iBeacon and voice guidance for an improved usability. For other user groups than the blind, we provide Augmented Reality solutions that add digital visual and audio information on top of the physical maps..

TactMap is a truly design-for-all solution that aims to address the needs in wayfinding of users with different abilities. 3D printing, as the manufacturing method, allows us to design finest details which are both comfortable to touch and attractive to look at.
