The conceptual 'Macaron' universal smart tape measure has been designed by Oseyeris as a solution for those with visual impairments to help them take measurements without requiring sight. The smart solution works by taking readings and using audio feedback to relay the information to the user as well as to the accompanying smartphone app for design purposes. This makes it a universal solution for all users and transitions the design experience from being somewhat limited to fully accessible.
The 'Macaron' universal smart tape measure also features haptic feedback technology that will let the user know when measurements have been saved for an additional layer of convenience. The compact solution also features a simple display built into it for easy navigation.
