Abstract

One of the ideal public transportation facilities for the visually impaired in daily activities is trains. To be used at maximum, there is a need for communicative media to support the independence of orientation and mobility for the visually impaired in the train station. The media plays a role in supporting visually impaired individuals to know where they are, where to go, and how to reach the destination. The previous result regarding visually impaired ability to identify pictorial form which is designed with Primadi Tabrani’s ancient visual language semiotic approach shows a great opportunity for a pictogram to be the solution. However, the challenge is how to make the visually impaired person understand the meaning description that has been designed into tactile pictogram by touch. Basic consideration in designing process is the clarity of visual form when being touched, which is influenced by the way the shape is drawn and the tactile height

Abstract

The tactile pictogram is designed as an orientation and mobility system for the visually impaired in the train station. How to access the information through touch. However, this design is also intended to be used by the sighted person. To make this design becomes universal, in the designing process, it is necessary to consider the cognitive processes that occur when the sighted people read a tactile pictogram as an input for data comparisons. Data collection methods are divided into three, namely surveys to obtain primary data, action research to obtain secondary data, and document study to obtain tertiary data. The study was conducted by testing the pictogram media that had been previously designed with a semiotic approach to the ancient visual language theory of Primadi Tabrani. The data results were analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively. At the analysis process, findings are hoped to be able to reveal definitional statements about the cognitive ability that is used by sighted people in reading tactile pictograms, namely imagery or memory.
