Hi Jonathan
It really depends on how well people are able to identify numbers. I, for
example, have no sight, and would probably be able to feel a number if it
were quite large and spaced apart from another. I wonder if something with
a shape on it or something more tactile wouldn't be a better idea? I'm not
knocking your suggestion of using a Dymo labeller with print numbers, but
something more obvious might be a better solution?
Kind Regards,
Jackie Cairns

I want to send out some items for test.
There are a slightly different variants of the item, so I'd like to put a
serial number on the back so if someone phones to report a problem, question
or suggestion, I can lookup which item it was.
There are less than 12, so not worth getting braille sheets made up.
I have this Dymo 3d labeller, the imprint is quite tactile and well spaced.
Would people generally find it acceptable to have a Dymo sticker with:
1 0 1 0 for serial number 10.
1 1 1 0 for serial number 13 etc
Not that it matters that it's binary, but this would allow me 16 distinct
numbers, and to a non-braille person like me, those two numbers felt
distinctively different.
Just trying to gauge a group opinion on a quick temporary solution to a
simple problem without annoying potential testers!
Thank you!
