Hello,
If I understand it right. The phone is held to provide a more like
stainsby / shorthand machine formation rather than a perkins? As with
the stainsby, could the keys be reversed? For those used to writing
braille on a frame or the standard stainsby? i.e. The letter "a" dot 1
generated by the index finger of the right or left hand? Or is the
orientation dots 1 & 4 are generated by the third finger of each hand?
What version of grade 1 is the app going to use? Is it computer braille
thus numbers are lower case letters? Or do you need to use the number
sign? Is the full stop 2 & 5 6 or 4 6? Or will this be switchable upon
release?
Thanks.

Hi Richard,
Thanks for your post. There is a free version of BrailleTouch. We hope this
will be useful for braille instructors, as well as for people who want to
try the app out. You do not have to buy an upgrade to use it with your
students.
The free version goes beyond the research prototype we developed at Georgia
Tech, which many braille instructors contacted us about. It will read back
characters, words, or both as you type. It will also speak the full
sentence that you typed in braille. I hope you will find this useful with
your students.
Best,
Caleb

Hi,
Do you have prices for the various upgrades yet?
I am a braille instructor and have been looking forward to when this would
be released.
Thanks,
Richard
