The BT Speak® is a compact device that uses an eight-dot Braille keyboard along with speech output measuring 6.1 by 2.9 by 0.8 inches, about the size of a cell phone. It features applications including an editor for writing and editing documents, a music streaming player, scientific calculator, clock and calendar and more. The device includes Wi-Fi, Bluetooth along with an HDMI port, a USB C port and a micro SD card slot for expanding storage. We’ll provide a demonstration of the product and also answer your questions.

Many people remember Deane Blazie, who started Blazie Engineering in 1987. Blazie Engineering produced the Braille ‘n Speak, a compact computer with a Braille keyboard which became one of the most popular products in the blindness technology landscape. Today, Deane’s new company, Blazie Technologies, has released a new product for the twenty-first century with similar features and commands that made the Braille ‘n Speak such an intuitive and easy to use product.
