In the room for barrier-free working<\/a> you will find, among other things, technical aids for people with (visual) impairments.<\/p>\n

What characterises the room?<\/h3>\n

State-of-the-art technology is available in the room for barrier-free working. For example, there is a PC with a Braille display and a printer that can also emboss. The screen reader has a read-aloud function and the option of displaying texts in different contrasts.<\/p>\n

The learning and workspace was planned in such a way that wheelchair users can also use it without any problems. For example, the tables are height-adjustable without steps. The room cannot be seen from outside, which means you can work here undisturbed.<\/p>\n
