  • Periodic table for the visually impaired
    Patent number: 11217118
    Abstract: This periodic table of elements provides tactile features particularly suited for a visually impaired user. The table provides raised element field borders and raised alphanumeric characters which correspond to a standard periodic table. The element fields are arranged in a perpendicular grid upon a semi-rigid substrate. At least one (1) linear fold line enables isolation of a portion of the chart allowing a user to focus upon a desired “energy section”, “group”, or “family” of elements contained within the chart.
