Serviceplan Korea and Serviceplan Innovation have been working with Dot Inc. since 2015. In an era where more than 84% of the information is visual, Dot Pad also allows blind people to explore more content. It is a game changer product that improves the quality of education and work convenience for the visually impaired by wirelessly connecting smart devices to complex images, equations, and mathematical calculations with tactile graphic displays.
Alexander Schill, Chief Creative Officer, Serviceplan Group, said: “I’m delighted that our ongoing partnership with Dot Inc.has been recognised by Eurobest with the Grand Prix for Dot Pad. When we embarked on our partnership with Dot Inc. in 2015, the idea of Dot Pad was a crazy dream. We worked together for 7 years on the development of innovative devices and software that make text accessible to the visually impaired. With Dot Pad we enter a new dimension of dynamic tactile graphics that provide a completely new experience for the visually impaired.”
Julie Kang, CEO of Serviceplan Korea, added: "I am happy that we have achieved good results with strategic creativity and execution in the global market while growing with Dot Inc. since 2015.
