On the left side of the terminal there is an area where 7 characters horizontally and 5 letters vertically can be displayed.


In this way the menu will be displayed.


To select a menu, slide your finger on the right panel.


Use this right side panel when you want to enter Braille. It is divided into 4 × 5 in the horizontal direction, and it is in the form of the 6 square sections of 2 × 3 in the middle of it are protruding. Take these 6 squares as the base of Braille and press down the same part as the protruding part of Braille and enter it. You can also select a type of input method that matches the panel to the same unevenness as in Braille notation.


The orange color represents the movement of the finger. Once you get used to it you will be able to input it smoothly with such feeling.


It is OK to turn the outside like this.


For example, "kore" represents "hello".


Battery status is displayed next to the main unit. One protrusion corresponds to 20% minute.


This is where I displayed the main menu. You can use the menu by sliding your finger from right to left or sliding it from left to right.


The body color can be changed freely.




Some terminals are barrier-free by speech recognition, but are these specialized one easier to use?
