Abstract

This research performs a quantitative, descriptive and documental study analyzing the following factors (i) preference (ii) perception (iii) textile surface character-identification; through a vinyl thermo-transference finish complying with an inclusive fashion approach for the visually impaired. In order to achieve this process, a study case was performed at Universidad Técnica del Norte with a group of visually impaired students. Data is gathered through a survey and templates designed with letters, numbers, symbols, diverse shapes, braille writing, 4 types of textures and embossment thickness from 90, 110, 325 to 600 μ. Application time fluctuates between 10–20 s at 155 ℃.
