Yes, and this is initially what we're considering doing.

Hi,

Wouldn't it be pretty easy to adapt the braille support to work with a
visual display? The technology is already in place to send what the Icon is
speaking and reading out the Bluetooth or USB port, so I'd think most of the
work for this is already done. the main difference would be that translation
would need to be done in reverse, with Grade 2 input back-translated and
text input untranslated. I'm sure it's more complicated than that, but isn't
it a start?

Best,
Anna
