0306, TMAP Tactile Mapping System, 2017
Two panels are printed with visible and tactile lines and text. The first panel is a key; the second panel is a map. The black dot at the center represents Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum, on Fifth Avenue. TMAP can generate a tactile map from any street address, using any tactile printer. The TMAP system was designed by Joshua Miele, a scientist and designer who is blind, with San Francisco's LightHouse for the Blind and Raizlabs, a Rightpoint company.
