The University of Pune’s (UoP) Advance Technology Blind Students’ Learning Centre (ATBSLC) is launching a pilot project, wherein the centre would be developing tactile graphic diagrams for visually impaired students who have enrolled for Bachelor of Computer Application (BCA) course across UoP affiliated colleges.

The tactile diagrams, which are raised shapes and textures, will be formulated on a particular type of paper using special printers known as Zycom Fuse Heater and Tiger Pro-graphic Braille Embosser, and produced on demand for colleges in the city.
