| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We developed an wearable device to read Braille via natural voice using fingertip-attached sensor. We initially collaborated a company which possess very high resolution pressure sensor technologies, but the company quits this business at very close to the end of the research project. We must find another company that posses same technology. We established fundamental features required for the device except for the pressure sensor. We construct a prototype of the wearable Braille reader. Once user take a picture of Braille text with a web camera, this device translates into Japanese and reads out in natural voice.
