TOP technology is helping students with sight disabilities to get to grips with the world of art and design.
Students at the Royal National College for the Blind in Hereford are now using a giant computerised smart board.
It has been provided by the national charity BlindArt and is one of the latest technological developments in the teaching of people who are blind or partially sighted.
It enables students to enlarge a piece of artwork from the Internet or a computer and is being used by people studying AS and A-level GNVQ Art and Design.
Hereford Royal National College for the Blind is the largest of its kind in the country, with up to 200 students aged from 16 years to 65.
Most of the students are residential and come from all over the UK.
They undertake courses ranging from a few weeks in length to two years.
