Understanding the Blind

In installing public signs for the blind, it is essential to understand their means of maneuvering through environments with a visual disability. Including some visual signals on signs can prove to be effective since some of the blind depend on the limited vision they have. Other signs characterized with senses like touch and sound signals are also important details to capitalize on as some blind people can effectively detect audio and/or use their sense of touch. These signs are effective in resorting to use of the other senses which can be found through designs made by sign board manufacturers in Dubai.

Sign board suppliers in Dubai are also capable of visually stimulating the blind through illuminated signs with LED lights. These signs are especially useful during the evening when it is dark and allows the signs to be more distinct. It is also important to note effective content design on the signs in order for the blind to easily distinguish boundaries and be alert of warnings.

The sound produced by these outdoor signs must be positioned in key locations for the visually restricted in order to minimize audio distortion.
