Further definitions of mental imagery are: “the mentalinvention or recreation of an experience that at least in some respects resembles the experienceof actually perceiving an object…” [9 as cited in 8] and “a cognitive process that makes thefigural aspects of previously seen objects…temporarily available to the mind.” [10 as cited in 4].Furthermore, mental imagery is an active process in problem solving [8]. Hence mental imageryis engaged for both blind and sighted people when interpreting engineering graphics.Mental imagery is cognitively part of visuospatial working memory, used for reasoning [11], andnot merely an
