BrailleSense 7

BrailleSense 7 is an upgraded successor to the previous-generation BrailleSense 6, offering faster performance, touch commands, and many enhanced features.

It represents a fundamental pivot in assistive technology: Moving from an era where users must had adapt their devices, to one offered in three different cell formats; automatic braille refresh with smart scroll, optional detachable Qwerty Keyboard, and integration with Google Gemini. This new smart tablet can meet every need. Available in 40, 32 or 20 Cell Variants.

An NVDA Remote on the BrailleSense 7 offers quick and reliable access to a Windows-based computer over the internet as if the user is actually seated at the control computer.  It is most intuitive when the Qwerty keyboard is attached to the BrailleSense 7 as you are using one Qwerty device to control another Qwerty device, although it is also possible to control the remote PC with the Perkins braille Keyboard on the BrailleSense 7; however, it isn’t nearly as natural. Please note that for this to work, your computer must be running NVDA and have remote access granted, as well as be awake and signed in.

The BrailleSense 7 comes with a fully functional Excel spreadsheet editor.

There are several ways to gain visual access to the BrailleSense 7, the most direct secure being via the HDMI port at the back of the device.  Note that other peripherals such as a mouse can also be connected for control.  Other methods of viewing the screen include remotely via one of the virtual meeting platforms or screen sharing apps. Migrating user data from one of the earlier Android based models of the BrailleSense, to the BrailleSense 7 is simply a matter of copying it from one device to the other.

Active Responsive Touch (ART)

Our Active Responsive Touch (ART) technology tracks finger position in real-time with our innovative Smart Scroll functionality. As you reach the last cell of the display line, the display refreshes automatically, offering a natural, seamless, immersive reading experience akin to reading a physical book.

Smart Scroll

BrailleSense 7 introduces an Analog Scroll Wheel that allows users to quickly skim and scroll documents in a similar way a sighted person uses a mouse. Scroll a document with one hand, while following the braille with another.

Google Gemini Partnership

A long press on the Home button instantly summons Google Gemini, for instant answers to your most immediate questions or analysis of documents from any screen.

Multi-Device Connectivity

USB and Bluetooth legacy support, as well as the modern HID Braille standard, with the ability to connect multiple devices at once. BrailleSense 7 also offers Remote PC Screen Reader Control, with either Braille or a full QWERTY interface, via NVDA Remote Support.

Single-Press Dictation

With a dedicated physical dictation button driven by AI powered by Google Gemini, users can start taking notes or searching the web with a single press.

Detachable QWERTY Keyboard

In addition to the traditional Perkins Braille keyboard, and Gemini-based dictation, BrailleSense 7 Supports an optional detachable QWERTY Keyboard allowing high-speed typing in a familiar layout.

Favorites Folder

Pin your most frequently used BrailleSense and/or Android apps for easy retrieval.

Unit ships with one user replaceable battery and space for an optional second one, the second battery gives longer operational time and supports the magnet that is used to attach the optional keyboard.
