Hi! I assume you tell the accessibility team that. That will actually help I guess. I use to mail them every now and then as there are a lot of things that needs to be fixed so that braille should work properly on the Mac. I don’t use a braille display with quirky keyboard. I use the Handitech

Hi Kawal, Using braille on the Mac with a topical display with the Perkins keyboard is quite challenging as they don't have a lot of commands to jump around the operating system. However using something like the Mantis from APH and Humanware is much easier as it is a full qwerty keyboard with

Hello everyone, Did you know you can use your iPhone from your pocket in conjunction with your braille display? Do you know about braille displays and iOS devices, but don't know where to get started? Have you heard about Braille Screen Input, but never quite got the hang of how to use

John, bluetooth 4.2 is pretty good. 30 meters range and you can pair 8 devices or so pretty successfully. Braille devices are very simple serial channels so don’t require a lot of horsepower. The interoperability and interference avoidance with WiFi is also quite good now I believe it’s

That’s not true actually, there is. Adapters exist and you can attach certain devices via USB, same with Android, but the support is not 100% from what I understand. There is a lightning Ethernet adapter as well. > On Dec 20, 2016, at 10:40 AM, E.T. wrote: > >

Hi active iphone braillers, Does the iphone support contracted braille in other languages than English? I’m Dutch and I still remember grade 2 Dutch braille from elementary school, but its vocabulary has some inconsistencies and I don’t know if it was ever standardized to fit our modern age.

HI. I've already recommended to the few people that I know who are studying contracted braille with iDevices that they get this one. I like how it lists the rules associated with the translation along with the dot combinations. I hope they'll develop one for UEB as well. The dev indicated that it

Hi there I have a question about this app. If I need it for Nemeth Code symbols, would you input your Nemeth symbol and/or expression with the braille display? I can see putting in dots for one or two cells, but I would think something else would be needed to input, say, a modified expression
