Hi Sharisse,
Nothing seen in the wild yet, but for a few ideas to get the creative thoughts going¡
In sports settings, such as goal ball, the road placed on the floor with strong tape over the top allows for a tactile perimeter and boundary lines. Similar strategies are used in theaters on stage for performers who are blind and visually impaired.
Auditory beaconing systems, similar to the ¡°locator tone¡± on many APS systems could be used for locating the next pole position or standing spot when queuing.

Greetings!
?
Now that we are seeing more and more floor labels for direction of traffic or where to stand to maintain 6 ft distance. Is anyone seeing any accessible markings or tactile markings??
?
I have just received a request from a local college that is asking for my advice as to how to mark these to make them tactile to the white cane as most of the students on campus use a white cane and they want to make sure the floor markings that the college is putting down is accessible to everyone. Any resources for auditory signs instead of floor markings?
?
Thanks!
