Launch Of The Monarch

 

It has been really amazing to see the reactions of people using the Monarch
for the first time at the various events I've attended during the month of
October. The new multi-line platform is just beginning, and it really will
transform the way we interact with Braille. Get a real feel for the Monarch
workflow in a classroom when dealing with maths. This video showcases the
workflow between students and teachers in a typical Math lesson.

Tactile View Announcement

 

TactileView transforms visual information into tactile graphics, making it
accessible to individuals who are blind or visually impaired. The software
allows you to create, share, and download tactile drawings from an extensive
online library, including a large cartography database. You can draw lines,
shapes, and insert information in braille, black script, or audio labels.
For those interested in mathematics, it's also possible to draw graphs
directly from equations. Whether printing on a braille embosser or using
swell paper, TactileView ensures everyone can engage with visual content
through touch.
