In just one week, through the generous support of Geno’s World, friends and supporters raised $2000 to purchase a SMART Brailler for one lucky family! Wow!
You’ve probably heard about the Perkins SMART Brailler and if you have you probably want one. Imagine a brailler with a computer screen and the capability to remember who you are, save your files and settings, quiz you on your braille skills and talk to you!
As a sighted parent, imagine being able to see what your child is typing on the screen in both print and braille so you can follow along and help them! What an amazing tool for anyone (child or adult) learning braille and what an amazing tool to have in a classroom!
Here’s what the SMART Brailler looks like:
SMART Brailler Features:
- A video screen that displays SimBraille and large print, combined with audio feedback, for an instantaneous, multi-sensory learning experience
- The ability to edit, save and transfer electronic documents via USB
- The APH version of the SMART Brailler also includes an APH Building on Patterns–Kindergarten App: Braille Learning Exercises, offering easy lessons for anyone – sighted or blind – who wants to learn braille
- Headphone jack and volume control
- Acapela Text to Speech from Acapela Group
