ABSTRACT:
A reading device for the blind for reading Braille Text directly from magnetic tape without embossing the characters on paper. A magnetic tape containing Braille Text is unloaded a page at a time into memory. The individual letters in the text are tactilly displayed using pins driven by solenoids. A position detecting "mouse" is used to control the movement from one letter to the next. The mouse is similar to those commonly used with computers. The braille display may be mounted on top of the mouse.
