The SMART Brailler cost $2195.00.
The SMART Brailler is built upon the Perkins Next Generation Brailler and 
features a video screen and audio feedback which shows and speaks letters 
and words in real-time as they are being brailled, for an instantaneous, 
multi-sensory learning experience.

HEAR THE WORDS. SEE THE LETTERS. CONNECT THE DOTS.

The Perkins SMART Brailler® is the evolution of the Perkins Brailler® from a 
low-technology, beloved classic to a high-technology learning and teaching 
tool. It offers a new, more intuitive way for individuals, both sighted and 
blind, to communicate, teach and learn braille together. Now teachers can 
see what their students are brailling, sighted parents can help their 
visually impaired children with homework and students can take the lead in 
their own braille education. Sighted or blind, we can all share the learning 
experience!

Features

Video screen displays SimBraille and print while audio feedback speaks the 
letters and words in real-time as they are being brailled for an 
instantaneous, multi-sensory learning experience.
USB port enables saving and transferring files to another device.
Text-to-speech from acapela group
Headphone jack and volume control
Operates as a mechanical brailler for extended use
Rechargeable and removable battery
It would be nice if we could take donations from individuals and chapter to 
help the Porter Family get one of these SMART Braillers.

Just a thought,
Holly
