Anchor Helen

Broadcasting equipment for the blind

Anchor Helen is designed to support blind voice broadcasters for radio or podcast. It includes a braille teleprompter and a recording microphone. The Braille teleprompter can convert documents on mobile phones and computers into Braille using Bluetooth, and provides speech prompts during the broadcast. The recording microphone not only optimizes the sound effect but is equipped with buttons designed to fit the habits of the blind, allowing the users to easily manage the recording files. Anchor Helen helps blind people make a living through their voice, pays attention to socially vulnerable groups, and promotes social fairness.

JURY STATEMENT

With this solution blind and visually impaired people literally gain a voice in the workforce, allowing them to build stronger livelihoods and contribute to their communities.

WINNER STATEMENT

This is the second time that we have won the iF DESIGN TALENT AWARD this year, which strengthens our belief in designing for vulnerable groups.
