This podcast explains how useful everyday tools can be developed for people with visual impairments. It is irrelevant whether the production is done manually or by machines. In addition, sources are presented where appropriate tools are already available that can be produced using 3D printing. The podcast is intended for those who are visually impaired, their families, and employees of companies that work with visually impaired people. This podcast is hosted by the ELEVATE project, which is also the subject of the podcast.
