Abstract

See full text

In an approach for visually enhancing tactile metadata, a computer receives an image on a first computing device. The computer selects an object from one or more objects depicted within the received image. The computer determines boundaries of the selected object. The computer assigns an object tag to the selected object within the determined boundaries, wherein the assigned object tag includes one or more keywords and terms describing the selected object. The computer assigns tactile metadata to the selected object within the determined boundaries based on one or more physical properties associated with the assigned object tag. The computer creates a visually enhanced image based on the assigned tactile metadata, wherein the assigned tactile metadata includes one or more physical properties associated with the assigned object tag capable of being represented visually.
