Regular listeners to our podcast will know that we love exploring new and innovative technology. We've been keeping an eye on developments in the world of multi-line refreshable Braille for a while now and are delighted to devote this episode to a new and emerging device called the TouchPad Pro. Stuart meets the TouchPad Pro's inventor Daniel Lubiner to learn more. The vision for the TouchPad Pro is to: Experience illustrations, graphs, photographs, and selfies. For example, feel a face rise out of the surface with the contours of the nose, eyes and cheeks. Read and write anywhere with 12 lines of refreshable Braille. Experience the Internet like never before. View, feel and zoom in on a full-colour tactile display. Use a specialized stylus to instantly create, touch, and save tactile drawings with multi-sensory feedback.
