Caption:
This 1997 image depicted an enlarged view of a thermostat that had been designed with features, which took into account the needs of end users like those with vision impairments. Design elements, including easily detectable tactile surface variations, enlarged numerals, a large, easily rotatable control dial, and a click noise cue as the temperature was being set, helped to negate difficulties that might be encountered by visually, or mobility impaired individuals.
