3D-printed anatomical models for tactile teaching visually-impaired students

Abstract
Development of three-dimensional printing technologies allowed educators to implement printed models in tactile teaching processes. This paper presents the case of 3D-printed models of body structures, including major body organs. Thanks to many possibilities of adjusting models details, they can be used in every stage of education. Realistic materials and high-detailed structures are much more effective in teaching in comparison to current approach, especially for visually impaired (VI) students.
