Abstract :
We have interests in a new approach to help color understanding of visually-impaired people inspired by the request of impaired people. A presentation method providing "active understanding" is needed to support user\´s own subjectivity. In this paper, we present a tactile color display based on a concept called "assistance of active understanding".
