Lensen is a drawing tool for children and adults with visual impairment to unleash their imagination through the sense of touch. It uses yarn and a Velcro sheet to create tactile lines that the users can feel with their fingertips as they draw. The yarn can be removed from the Velcro sheet and reused.
