Before and now

Before and now


Hi! This is the tihrth entry of this blog. After reading theprevious two,   you may be thinking about this question.  Is it posible to conjugate braille with modern  technologie? How could it be done? In this post I will talk about my experience with braille devices. 

Braibook.

Braibook is a spanish innovator  device that looks like a mouse, -it may be a little bit  bigger- wich consist in a braille cell of  eight movile points. Computariced  braille is composed of eight points, but we usually find it with six points. Depending of the order that the device recives, some points are showed and some points are hided, and that showed points mean an only letter or sign. In the device there is also a joistick to move via de documents or the configuration menue. The braibook is light and compact, has different options and counts with a voice    that  reads  aloud if you use headphones,  but it can only repressent one sign at the same time. This  makes reading a slow experience, even after the adaptation period.

Braille me.

Braille me is not the first   braille display on the market. It consists in a determinated number of refreshable  cells  wich show diferent  letters  at the same time. Braille me has twenty refreshable cells, so we can read twenty letters  before needing to refresh the device. It also has a writing option, with six keys representing the six points used to write in braille. Depending of what keys you use, the corresponding points  will apear inmediately in the cells.  The braille me was created by innovision, an enterprice from India. It is one  of the cheapest braille displays at this moment, and it has a good quality and functioning. In braille, the reading proces is not as fast as conventional  reading, but  both  types of reading  represents a similar  experience. That is way I  prefer reading, for example, comedy books in braille and not by audiobooks. It's worth it!
