More than a dozen professional musicians – all of them blind will demonstrate the world’s first multi-line braille e-reader on 16 March at London’s Royal National Institute Of Blind People (RNIB).
The Canute 360, developed by Bristol Braille Technology, is described as, ‘the world’s first viable multi-line refreshable Braille e-reader: a “Kindle for blind people.”‘
The Canute, which will be launched in summer 2018, has been developed by social enterprise Bristol Braille Technology. The size of a laptop, it will enable the musicians to read multiple lines of music at once instead of the single line available with traditional machines.
