Use stand-alone or connect to a computer or mobile device. Works with all popular screen readers on Windows, Mac OS, iOS, and Android. Read and send messages and emails, browse the internet, or control your computer or smartphone.
Based on revolutionary braille cell technology developed by Orbit Research - uses mainstream components and manufacturing processes to enable unique signage-quality refreshable braille at a fraction of the cost of the piezoelectric technology that has been used in braille cells so far.
When used as a standalone reader, it enables the user to read any file from the SD card. These could be BRF and BRL formatted books, text files, or files in any format. Allows students, especially in developing countries, to have content loaded onto the SD card by teachers and use the unit without any live connectivity to a computer or the internet.
