Hi,
Someone shared your project with me.
I had a conversation with someone who is interested in funding development.
How much would it cost to get this project to a place where a totally blind person could order one of these from an online store?
On a related note, that person is interested in funding development of an image that has a text based home screen/launcher, where the home screen a launcher that you can just scroll up and down in, through alist of favorites, followed by a list of all programs listed alphabetically. It is hoped this will be of use to low vision people, totally blind people, light sensitive people (e-ink display friendly), and color blind people.
If you can give me a number, I'll take that back to the interested potential funder.

Hi,

I'm sorry for the delay in responding. The problem is that I don't speak English. My language is Spanish. On the other hand, I live in Venezuela, where the situation is difficult, and that has prevented me from being more involved in the project in recent months.

As for your question, I wasn't very clear about what you need. I would like you to explain it better. It would be great if you could find a translator and schedule a meeting via Zoom or Meet with the Spanish-English translator.

This project primarily seeks to be as affordable as possible and to be replicable and improved. It can be manufactured with available components or with parts assembled in a 3D printer. Regarding having a screen, it is part of the idea of the Brailletouch project to have a screen so that both Braille and text content can be displayed. We are also working on the idea that it can be modular, where modules can be incorporated according to the needs of the person. In this way, the screen module could be adapted to the needs of the person.

The project seeks to build a device that is as affordable as possible. The idea is that it does not exceed $100 in cost, although it could be considered a little more in the case of having additional modules. However, the initial idea is that a functional device can be acquired for $100. Then, additional modules could be incorporated for greater functionality at an additional cost.

I hope this is a good translation. Please let me know if you have any other questions.

Thanks,

I'm sorry, I haven't written for a long time. I speak a little spanish. I want to learn more Spanish. What a good opportunity to practice!

What is ready on the braille display?

Can I pay to have it done if I know a man with a 3D printer?

I don't know much about coding or how to do something, or github. Kuriatus from Quill OS tells me about this project.

What do you need to continue the project?

I hope you write faster than me.

Thank you,
Chloe

Es mas facil para mi escribir que tener un reunion. Puedemos escribir?
It's easier for me to write than to meet. Could we write one another?
