Project T.A.C.A. (Tactile Accessibility to Culture and the Arts) aspires to revolutionize the relationship of blind people with culture, through the replacement of visual interaction with the exhibits with tactile interaction with a 3D-printed replica. Ψultural items, paintings, sculptures, architectural monuments, museums and whole archaeological sites will be scanned to create digital 3D replicas, 3D-printed with cutting-edge 3D printers. Finally, an electronic transmitter-receiver system embedded in the exhibit replicas, will complement the tactile interaction with audio information, which will constitute one digital cultural guide, designed in collaboration and based on specific needs of the community of blind people.
