Abstract(s)
O seguinte projeto foi concebido no âmbito do Design Inclusivo, e seguiu um conjunto de fases
específicas, desde a planificação até à elaboração de várias ideias, com vista ao melhoramento
das condições de vida para cegos, e pessoas de baixa visão. Este trabalho foi baseado segundo
uma complexa fase de investigação, a qual gerou um conjunto de ideias, que mais tarde vieram
a dar soluções.
Este projeto consiste numa “tradução pictórica” das bulas dos medicamentos, e sua aplicação
em alguns suportes físicos e multimédia. O que se propõe é que a pessoa, portadora de uma
deficiência visual, tenha ao seu dispor um leque de ferramentas que lhe permita compreender as
informações primordiais contidas na bula, sem que seja preciso a ajuda de terceiros, para
conseguir tomar os seus medicamentos. Para que a ideia seja de fácil compreensão, recorreu-se
a conceitos de simplicidade e coerência, que vão desde a marca, passando pelo “layout”, até às
aplicações.
Neste conjunto de soluções, serão apresentados os seguintes itens: conjunto de pictogramas
ilustrativos das informações contidas nas bulas, e aplicação dos mesmos em anexos, que
posteriormente serão fornecidos por farmacêuticos. Haverá também uma aplicação de
interfaces, que permitirá guiar o indivíduo, seja pelas imagens de tamanho aumentado, ou pelo
som, que acompanhará cada ação.
Em suma, todo um conjunto de aplicações que caso sejam implementadas, poderão vir a ser
preponderantes no dia-a-dia de uma pessoa com deficiências visuais.
Abstract : The following project was conceived in the scope of Inclusive Design, and it followed a set of specific phases, from the planning, to the preparation of several ideas, in order to improve the living conditions for the blind, and people with low sighted vision. This work was based according to a complex investigation phase, which generated a set of ideas, that later became solutions. This project serves as a pictorial translation of the medicine’s leaflets, and its application in some physical and multimedia supports. What is purposed is that the individual, carrier of visual handicaps, has at his disposal a toolset that allows him to understand the primordial information contained in the leaflet, without having the need to call upon the help of others, to be able to take his medicine. In order for the idea to be easily perceived, concepts of simplicity and coherence were enlisted, comprising the mark, layout and applications. In this set of solutions, the following items will be presented: set of pictograms illustrative of the information contained in the leaflet, and their applications, that later will be given by the pharmaceutics. There will also be an interface application, that will guide the person, whether by the increased size images, or through the sound, that will accompany each action. In short, a whole set of applications that once implemented, may become preponderant on the visually impaired daily routine.
