Graduates of Daegu Kwangmyung School, an educational institution for visually impaired students in Daegu, received their specially designed graduation albums featuring their classmates on Thursday.
The album contains three-dimensional relief portraits of the graduates, created using 3D printers and scanners, allowing students to recognize faces through touch.
Founded in 1946, the school is the only educational institution in the Daegu and North Gyeongsang Province region dedicated to students with visual impairments, offering education from kindergarten through high school, as well as postsecondary vocational training.
The annual 3D graduation album is the result of collaboration among industry, academia and research institutions to help visually impaired students preserve shared memories. It was first introduced in 2020.
