Tactile Tables

TOUCH TABLES.
Next to the different types of tactile panels, which remain CITISLAB’s flagship product, we therefore propose the “Tactile Table” product, which integrates the contents normally communicated by tactile panels with three-dimensional elements, to be explored with satisfaction and easily gaining insight into the morphology and volumes of a natural or urban landscape, a building or an architectural detail element.

The ease of exploration is ensured by the very structure of the product: a tactile panel placed on a flat support, around which one can move freely to explore the reliefs present but especially the three-dimensional model resting on the panel.
This type of proposal fascinates any visitor, starting with children and schoolchildren, and is obviously highly appreciated by those with visual impairments.

A three-dimensional model of a landscape makes up for the complete lack of information about the space in which it is located that a blind person may experience. Likewise, a three-dimensional model of a building allows for control of the space and facilitates orientation and movement within it.

As for the three-dimensional rendering of an architectural detail, it is quite obvious that it can facilitate the understanding of valuable elements of historic architecture perhaps placed in unreachable positions, but at the same time it can communicate the form of an object, animal or plant element of which direct exploration is impossible.
