This research proposes a first-of-its-kind technological platform providing the blind and visually impaired with the ability to physically 'feel' the visual information contained within 2D visual art. Aside from facilitating equity and access to the visual arts, the ability for the blind and visually impaired to perceive the visual information contained within generic 2D images offers wider reaching benefits. The realisation of the proposed technological platform offers the radical potential to revolutionise the available technologies for assisting the blind and visually impaired. The realisation of this technological capability also offers the potential to introduce a new dimension to the communication mediums used within wider society.

这项研究提出了一个首创的技术平台，为盲人和视障人士提供身体“感受”2D视觉艺术中包含的视觉信息的能力。除了促进公平和获得视觉艺术之外，盲人和视障人士感知普通2D图像中包含的视觉信息的能力提供了更广泛的好处。拟议的技术平台的实现提供了彻底改变现有技术的潜力，以帮助盲人和视力受损者。这种技术能力的实现还提供了为更广泛的社会中使用的通信媒介引入新的层面的潜力。
