Proposal for Euro bills from Spain

Post by Victorius »

The "Partido Popular", one of the two majority partys in Spain, said last Thursday that they'll propose mark euro bills with Braille code, as Canadian bills. They said it in the Mundial Day of the Vision and coinciding with the Spanish presidency in 2010. If this proposal pass in the Spanish Parlament, it'll pass to the European Parlament. "ONCE", the spanish association of blind people, has support this idea.

What do you think?

Well, wrinkling not such a big problem. Predecessing currencies of the Euro also some elements, designated to show denomination to blind people; see:
for Germany http://aes.iupui.edu/rwise/banknotes/Ge ... onated.JPG" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
for the Netherlands http://aes.iupui.edu/rwise/banknotes/ne ... 1968_f.jpg" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
and for Spain http://aes.iupui.edu/rwise/banknotes/spain/spa163_f.JPG" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Today, templates are used to "measure" the size of the euro notes, so it doesn't matter if the banknotes are wrinkled or not.
