I have just found an interesting video, about a very useful invention: an ebook for people with visual disabilities. If you want to watch this video, please click on the link below:

Voice in off: “A trip by bus, inspired him; while reading his eBook, he thought of the options, for the blind, and they did not convince him”.
Carlos Madolell (Creator BRAIBOOK): “The audio book, you can not connect both with the book, as if what you read it, and Braille lines, conventional, are very large and very expensive”
Voice in off: “He has invented a small device, that transforms documents, into different formats and languages, to the Braille System”.
Carlos Madolell: “We are going to give the reader a new experience, making the text goes through screen. This means that the blind will only have to put its finger, on the screen, and get to read”
Aina Galduf (Voice in off. Editorial office Catalonia): “It measures less than 10 centimetres; but it allows the reader to have a whole library, close at hand. Now, it is only a prototype; but the final one will be released, at the end of the year”
Voice in off: “It incorporates a very comfortable reading system”
Manel Martí (President Visual Disabilities Association Catalonia): “Portability is the attractive thing: that you can take it, over the world, without bothering you, absolutely, this facilitates the communication of the blind and people with low vision.”
Voice in off: “And three hours, of battery life, so they can also enjoy and feel the pleasure of reading”.
Once again, it is shown that, in Spain, there are very creative, very prepared --at scientific level-- and with a great heart, to put their knowledge at the service of others.
Until my next post, kind regards,
Luis.
