New Device Makes Learning and Teaching Braille Easier

The Smart Brailler is unique in its multi-function, multi-sensory output using the standard braille keyboard. Fitted with a proprietary electronic device that displays large print, simulated braille images and provides audio output, the Smart Brailler allows non-braille users to access what is being typed.

Because the device is built around a Next Generation Perkins Brailler, hard copy braille is also generated simultaneously. It not only functions as a mechanical brailler, it allows a student to save and transfer electronic documents via USB, and to edit documents. Even more important, with the audio feedback and the screen which displays what is being brailled, a sighted classmate or parent can work alongside the student.
