Walletify

Part 1: Drawing key lessons

• Making the society more inclusive so that visually impaired people can pay for their purchases without having to depend on others.

• Students developed a wallet to help them keep notes (money) organized and identify them.

• At the corners of each compartment are Braille symbols to identify the notes in the wallet.

Areas of improvement for the project:

• Sourcing for resources and expertise to sew the wallet.

• Improving wallet materials with garment rather than leather; therefore, they are soft and not waterproof.

• Suggest inserting thick plastic (flexible and not too soft) between the garments to facilitate note sorting.

Part 2: Exploring Possibilities

• In those wallets available in the market, there is no Braille to distinguish between notes.

• Adding features that can be used to identify fake notes.
