It is because of this I would like to share the importance of colour and luminance contrasting to give aid to the many vision impaired people in the world. For example if a person with a vision impairment enters say a public WC they would find a white WC system, white walls (Probable), white wash basin and so one those facilities would be near on impossible to locate. By painting the walls in a contrasting colour those white objects stand out can be identified by most vision-impaired people. Handrails on stairs that are the same colour as the wall in another example but in this case a danger when not identified. Simple solution again in contrast the rails in say blue, black, green in fact any colour that will create a strong contrast. A large part of the Disability Discrimination Act 1995 that became law on October 2004 is the requirement of contrasting many everyday objects to offer assistance to those millions with visual impairments.
