Enhanced version of impairment simulators

An enhanced version of the vision impairment simulator with increased functionality is currently under development. This will allow you to:

  • Upload multiple images at a time, so that different concepts and possibilities can be easily compared (and explored)
  • Create your own morph files, as demonstrated by the toaster example within the online vision impairment simulator
  • Create your own multiple files, as demonstrated by the ticket machine example within the online vision impairment simulator
  • Save collections of images, for future work and for presenting to others
  • Apply the vision impairment simulations to an image of the current desktop

Development is also underway of a new version of the audio impairment simulator with increased functionality.

Please email toolkit-enquiries@eng.cam.ac.uk; if you would like notification when the enhanced version is launched.
