【 #WeArePolyU – Poly-preneur 2】The visually impaired experience the world mainly through the senses of touch and hearing. In view of the limited resources available for the visually impaired, PolyU alumnus Rico Chan founded a start-up social enterprise Beyond Vision Projects with support from the PolyU Micro Fund Scheme. He strived to enhance the quality of life of the visually impaired and the wider community’s awareness of social inclusion and accessibility. Watch the second episode of our Poly-preneur series and learn more about the Tactile-Audio Interaction System designed by Rico to enrich the museum experience of the visually impaired; as well as the tactile learning materials and tactile graphics specially designed for students of Ebenezer School and WWF-Hong Kong eco-tours respectively.
