Hi,
Enclosing an short article about the Braille Book by Sergio Trujillo.
Perhaps a bit off subject but thought this would be of interest. Looks
like there are 10 braille lines so think might be able to make a simple
graphic with it.
Anyone familiar with this?
The [ http://www.andalux.com/braillebook/ ]Braille Book, also know as the
bBook, by Sergio Trujillo is an interesting innovation for the blind. It
is able to raise and lower small nodules to get the message across in
Braille. A built-in rechargeable battery ensures that the bBook can be
used anytime, anywhere. Bluetooth connectivity is used to transfer eBook
material. Will the bBook replace audio books for the blind? We think that
those who are both blind and deaf will benefit the most.
