Hi Dan,
Allan Mills exhibited a sundial for the blind at the BSS Yarnfield
conference. A sun spot heated a narrow copper strip wound around the outside
of a cylinder with raised numerals in braille. A totlly blind person could then
'feel' the time.
I have a small jpeg if anyone would like to see it via < lindisun...@gmail.com

Hello,
I was wondering: has anyone designed a sundial for the blind? Can there be one?
How do you make people feel the shadow?
