braille signage
Touch-readable public text
Braille signage refers to signs that include raised dot patterns readable by touch, enabling blind and visually impaired people to navigate spaces independently.
These signs typically appear on restroom doors, elevator panels, room numbers, and building directories.
Many countries require braille signage in public buildings under accessibility laws: The new office installed braille signage throughout the corridors. (Capitalized Braille signage uses the eponymous form.)
