[nfbmi-talk] University Of Michigan Developing Fuller, Less Expensive Braille/Graphics Display For Mobile Devices

[Christine Boone]

Kane, have you seen anything more about this research project at U of M?  
	 Gosh how I would love to get some affordable Braille displays into schools for the blind around the Country.  They just cannot afford them at 8 to 10 thousand dollars a pop.  

Anyway, thank you for sharing this excellent research with us.  

Christine
Kane, I wondered if you have seen any other references to this fascinating research?
