Access and Technology Consulting for Vision
What is Guide Dogs' Access and Technology Consulting Service?
Our Access and Technology Consultants specialise in providing solutions to improve the day-to-day usability of indoor and outdoor environments and essential services for people with low vision and blindness.

We can support you to:
- Identify and resolve functional access challenges relating to people with blindness or low vision
- Identify indoor and outdoor wayfinding (navigation) solutions
- Meet and exceed relevant legislation and Australian Standards, including those relating to Tactile Ground Surface Indicators (TGSIs), Braille/tactile signage and luminance contrast.
