SculptPads is a mobile solution that enables visually-impaired users to experience art and diagrams. While modern museums mostly rely on audio to describe artwork to blind and visually impaired people, many still feel disconnected from the pieces in front of them. SculptPads makes these experiences more accessible by using a grid of variable dots to help users interpret colour, contrast, and topography, facilitating communication through Braille.
