[Blindtlk] [Blindly] [Blindly] Digital Braille Clock?

[Szostak, Christine]

Wow, actually I had not thought about that as I just assumed that most  of the bulk is due to the internals (e.g., circuit boards...). I figured the pins were actually only a few millimeters thick). Oops, I got that one wrong:)!
Happy week all!

Another thing is that they would be very bulky, as braille pins are long, when you think about the thickness of a braille display.

The closest thing would be the talking watches and clocks.  I've also thought a digital braille display watch or clock would be great, but any kind of display, as I understand it, is expensive to produce.

HI All,
  Does anyone know if there is such a thing as a digital braille watch or alarm clock (note meaning completely separate from something like a BrailleNote...)? I have never understood why such a thing could not be produced as a stand alone watch or clock given that many of the refreshable braille displays have them. I am aware of the analog clocks/watches, but would  prefer digital (especially as an alarm clock).
Have a great end of the weekend all!
Chris
