10. BRAIGO

♤ It is a low cost Braille-printer developed by a 12 year old boy of Indian Origin Shubham Banerjee.

♤ Braigo, is short for Braille with Lego as this printer uses toy components manufactured by toy brand Lego.

♤ Users can type in letters, and the Braigo’s needle will hammer out the translated message in raised dots on paper

♤ This concept slashes the price of a printer from more than $2000 to around $350 for education, teaching and home use purposes. Thus giving a more cost effective printer for the disadvantaged. The printer is also faster than most other commercially available Braille printers in the market.

♤ Braille printers receive data from computer devices and emboss that information in Braille onto paper
