Description

With Active Tactile Control (ATC), a Braille Display can track finger position and respond to specific gestures. Readers can eliminate manual scrolling. Teachers can record and analyze student reading sessions. Trainers can mirror their device on multiple student displays or monitor multiple students working independently. ATC even enables a music Braille editor in which tones are played only when a student reads a musical note on their display. ATC was first introduced by Help Tech GmbH in 2012, but it has continued to evolve, and we've only begun to scratch the surface of what it can do. We'll show you how it works so that you can think about how it might benefit you or someone you know. Please join us with your questions and your curiosity. We look forward to challenging what you thought you knew about Braille Displays.
