The technology of smartphones is growing at an incredible rate. These great devices, equipped with all kinds of functions and applications, have become almost indispensable for some people and is a product widely used in day to day. Of course those who can not fully enjoy the benefits it can provide a smartphone are people with no vision. The options available for the blind are negligible and in most cases are not very useful, but this could soon change. An innovative India, young  Sumit Dagar, is developing the world's first smartphone that uses the Braille code, so that it is a device geared for people who dominate. Dagar has been working on this project with his small company for about 3 years or so.
Instead of the traditional glass screen, the screen of this smartphone is a touch that creates a Braille printing to handle the phone. The device is able to convert text messages as emails and braille code (regardless of language). The screen is able to recreate the braille code on its surface so that the person can read by passing his hand over it, which is achieved by means of a kind of grid full of small pins that are raised to be forming the words.
We hope that soon emerge more news about it.
What do you think about this project?
