Tactile Graphics Development
Make your visual concepts accessible by creating tactile representations.
Tactile graphics help people who are blind or low vision understand information that is usually shown visually—like maps, pictures, charts, and diagrams. Instead of seeing the image, a person can feel the raised lines and shapes to get the same information that sighted users receive.
We offer our tactile graphic expertise to schools, workplaces, and community organizations. With new refreshable braille devices—such as APH’s Monarch—people who are blind or low vision now have instant access to far more digital braille than ever before. This rapid growth of digital options has created a strong need for high‑quality tactile graphics to go along with that braille content.
At Ettu, our trained specialists create both digital and printed tactile images to ensure your materials are fully accessible. Contact us today to learn how we can support your accessibility needs.
Our Work In Action
We are partnering with a leading student testing developer to create thousands of high-quality tactile graphics designed for modern assessment environments. These graphics will be seamlessly integrated for use with emboss-on-demand technology and Monarch, ensuring students who are blind or low vision have immediate access to critical visual information.
By building a comprehensive tactile image library, we’re not only advancing accessibility but also delivering long-term benefits—reducing costs, increasing efficiency, and enhancing flexibility in teaching, learning, and testing.
