D/S BrailleSense 6

The BrailleSense 6 is the most powerful braille notetaker in the world. Designed with the fastest hardware and powered by Android 10, it is the ultimate notetaker.

Built-in apps allow you to create documents, send and read email, browse the web, play DAISY and other media, manage your contacts and calendar, search and download books, and manage databases.

Not only is the BrailleSense 6 is a powerful productivity tool, it also promotes Braille literacy through its braille-centric command structure. It also supports Google Apps such as Google Drive, Google Docs, Google Sheets, Google Slides and Google Classroom; ensuring students and professionals can be intuitively productive and efficiently collaborative in the contemporary world.

Traditional looks – a 32-cell braille display and a nine-key Perkins-style keyboard (including Control, Alt and function keys) – are combined with competitive, modern hardware and connectivity to create a device that is slimmer, lighter, faster and more efficient.

Download more apps, including Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Apple Music, Amazon Kindle, or any other accessible app, via Google Play. And stay connected, professionally or personally, via YouTube, X (formerly Twitter), Facebook, WhatsApp, or other platforms.

Use the built-in 13 megapixel camera, or connect an external USB camera to join online meetings with video. External camera support also makes batch scanning print materials especially convenient.

You can also use the BrailleSense 6's proprietary apps to create TXT, RTF, DOCX and DOC, BRF, and more. You can also access PPT and PPTX, XLS and XLSX, PDF, EPUB, XML and HTML, as well as DAISY books and media files in all standard formats.

In addition, this notetaker offers an intuitive and automatic interface for electronic braille maths, via UEB, Nemeth, or computer braille, including equation creation and editing in the Word Processor, and scientific and graphics calculators.

The BrailleSense 6 allows visual collaboration with parents, teachers, and colleagues, who can view the notetaker's screen via the USB C port, which can connect to and power portable HDMI monitors, or mirror the screen to another Android tablet.
