Overview
This is an overlay of important keyboard features geared toward students who are visually impaired based on feedback by vision therapists. This tactile keyboard, printed with a 3D Printer and attached to a standard keyboard with hot glue, enlarges letters to more than 200% of their original size on a standard keyboard, and can be color coded.
It’s also a great way to introduce keyboarding to younger students as well (number row, home row, middle row and lower row can all be focused on individually).
How To Use
After printing, the raised letters can be glued onto the keyboard and used as normal.
