About

>T3 - making graphical information and diagrams accessible for people with visual impairment and problems with the written word

One of the biggest single advances in teaching visually impaired learners ever achieved.

A unique combination of sound and touch is bringing a whole new world of teaching opportunities into both special needs and mainstream education.� The T3 talking tactile technology is a multi sensory device developed by the Royal National College for the Blind (RNC).

>From a flower head to a map of the world, from the bones of a skeleton to a school plan, ANY subject taught at any level from foundation to A Levels, in schools and Further Education colleges can be converted by this audio/haptic programme. T3 gives total access to any learning programme for the blind or visually impaired learner.

The major benefit of the T3 is that it makes accessibility easier for the visually impaired student, automatically putting them in control of their own learning. This builds confidence in the learner and ensures that teaching is meaningful and fun.

RNC is building a library of talking tactile resources to cover vocational and national curriculum subject areas for learners across the full age range.

The T3 is now being successfully introduced into museums, art galleries and tourist attractions.

To find out how you can use the T3 in an educational setting or in the workplace, visit our stand in Hall B.
