Help me (self.Blind)
submitted 5.223822948816872y ago by professional_name_
I am not a blind person, but I just need help figuring out challenges faced by the blind in order to get my solution made out. I have got 2 more weeks before submission and I cant think of anything.

What is this for?
professional_name_ [OP] 1 points 5y ago
i need to design a product that helps the blind go through the certain task painlessly and enjoy it. Experience and Product design.
SnoobertDoobertDoo 2 points 5y ago
Can you be a little more specific about what this task is? And why you're designing this product? And does it have to be for the blind specifically?
professional_name_ [OP] 1 points 5y ago
Well thats what i need to know. what tasks that the blind encounters that they have trouble with or something thay exposes them to danger. this is a course work. so it have to be targeted for the blind or else thr is no point in this product and thus i get a fail grade.

What course are you taking that you **need** to design something for **blind people** specifically?

First, consider the irony of this post. It seems to be that you’re trying to find a solution to a problem that blind people face. But in reality you were the one with a problem that needs a solution, and you’re asking blind people to fix it for you. Maybe think beyond trying to create some token help the blind gimmick. Consider real systematic changes to society that might benefit all people with disabilities. If you really want to help someone, you need to think beyond yourself.

Hi. One major challenge faced by the blind is the obstacle of finding training resources in certain regions do to long waiting lists, lack of government funding, and etc. There are many people who grow up visually impaired or loose their sight later on in life who are unable to live independently because they do not know skills such as using a cane, I hope that this helps.

You can't think of anything...? Think of navigation, finding objects, reading text

Ghe, just close your eyes and clean your house, do laundry, go shopping and cook. Ideas should be plentiful.

Don't mess with the cane. Don't invent a new braille system.

Seriously? Just blindfold yourself for a couple if days and try to live your life.
cae_jones 5 points 5y ago
I really don't think that would work, unless they're specifically after challenges faced by the recently blind.
