Vision Ability Work Shop



Because one of the Depot Project's Clients is considered legally blind, we did a vision ability work shop in a popular place on campus to better understand what we would be designing for. We wore sun glasses with petroleum jelly smeared over the lenses to blur our vision and had to use an elevator, ATM, and stairs as a visually impaired person would. The only problem I ran into was when I went to use the ATM, it did not have braille or brightly colored numbers on the key pad so it was difficult to use. The above Picture was taken through a card that had lenses with differnet vision impairments. This lens was leagally considered blind.
