Braille 3d printer

Braille printer

Most braille reading materials are heavy and expensive. This product combines 3D printing technology with home printing to let any blind person produce their own braille manuscripts. The device is operated by voice command and uses recycled paper as its raw material. In terms of structure, it is designed with the needs and limitations of blind people in mind.

JURY STATEMENT

This braille printer uses 3D printing technology in a compact desktop design. The product has numerous features specifically tailored to the needs of blind people, including voice command operation. The design is easy to use but needs to be more detailed. It helps to achieve the tenth (Reduced Inequalities), ninth (Industry, Innovation and Infrastructure) and fourth (Quality Education) of the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

WINNER STATEMENT

I am very honored that my ideas have won the judges’ approval, but I am aware that this is just one step forward on the road to ever-better design.
