We introduce Brailly, an interactive cube made for visually impaired people of every age, who would like to learn Braille in a fun way. \nBrailly is a 3D printed cube that consists of a speaker with an audio guide for learning simple words and letters in Braille. Learning Braille happens through a set of individual or collaborative exercises. Users can learn how to \u201cwrite\u201d in Braille by clicking on buttons, which imitate the Braille alphabet. Learning how to \u201cread\u201d the letters happens through haptic dowels. \nOur first prototype consists of 3D-printed inside parts made from PLA and an outside shell made from TPU95 material which makes the cube safe for kids. Other important components are six buttons allowing for Braille input and six servo motors which are responsible for the Braille output. \nDuring Makers faire we would also like to present our new prototype which has significant improvements such as different motors, smaller size, better sound and quality.<\/p>","protected":false},"featured_media":686837,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"mf-project-cat":[21646,21659,21661,21653,21676,21663],"class_list":["post-686828","projects","type-projects","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","mf-project-cat-3d-printing","mf-project-cat-art-design","mf-project-cat-education","mf-project-cat-kids-family","mf-project-cat-maker-pro","mf-project-cat-robotics","mf-year-tax-21649"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"\n
