Did you get a price for a single Cadence unit? I’d love to have 4 of them together but that’s probably cost prohibitive. I’d also love to get my hands on one.

They demonstrated a variety of tasks including games, math equations, science experiments, and mirroring the screen. It was interesting touching graphics and Braille. I was able to feel graphics change as things happened. One example was a physics experiment where they showed what would happen if two balls collided. I can’t compare it with other devices. I had a quick look at the Monarch two years ago at the ACB exhibit hall. I think both devices are interesting. Tactile Engineering is working with rehabilitation agencies in 8 states and has a backlog of orders until February. I hope the device succeeds. I think the situation with graphics displays is similar to that of the first Kurzweil reading machine. Universities purchased it and students were able to use it but couldn’t afford to own it. I hope graphics displays get in the hands of more people than just students.
