summary |
This research explores implementing computation to enhance access to ocean pool and marine landscapes for the inclusion of people who are blind or have low vision (BLV). Constructing reliable representations, explanations and descriptions can support interactions with objects and participation in activities, particularly in these ocean environments. We discuss the adoption of a series of computational design strategies to leverage the impact of recent scanning technologies in information transfer. The paper introduces a background to touch access and universal design. It presents a case study of aerial photogrammetry for an ocean pool in NSW, Australia, and presents multi-scalar workflows and processes across computational design and advanced fabrication methods, including a) photogrammetry through drone-flight on a macro-scale and 3D-scanning to establish data-sets; b) parametric design and scale adaptations;†and c) 3D printing and robotic milling for touch access. |
