Watching an episode of "Japan's Top Inventions" on #NHK about tactile paving.
It's kind of depressing when you see the inventor, who had a #VisionImpaired friend, searching for solutions...and not asking the people his invention was meant for...at first.

Then noone was interested to invest in his solution so he even offered the "Ministry of Construction" that he would pay for the tiles and the installation.
The first #TactilePaving was installed in 1967...

During the pandemic I used NHK as a source of science when the president was telling ppl to drink bleach. Once again a useful & easily accessible outside POV. They have apps for iOS, AppleTV, and even post to YouTube. No ads, on demand content, and quality journalism. And if you like the band Deee-lite, former band member Toa Tei is credited for many of their jingles. #nhk #toatei #DeeeLite
