Meet BrailleDB: Explore, Find and Compare Braille Devices.
Choosing a braille device is an important decision. With many options available, often at a considerable cost, finding the right one can be challenging—especially when there is little opportunity to try devices before buying.
BrailleDB, a Seeing Hands project, helps make that choice easier. This online database brings together information about braille devices, aiming to cover those available for consumer purchase.
Whether you already have a particular model in mind or are just beginning your search, BrailleDB offers three practical ways to explore. Look up an individual device to read its specifications, features and links to further information and reviews. Use advanced search to find devices that match the features you need. Or select several models and compare their characteristics side by side.
Unfamiliar with a technical term? A glossary explains braille display terminology, helping readers understand the information they encounter.
For braille users, teachers and anyone supporting a purchasing decision, BrailleDB offers a useful starting point for exploring the options and asking informed questions.
