Since it is printed by foaming of a special capsule paper using a thermal printing method, it is small, quiet, and achieves a very high-quality finish compared to the conventional embossed method which makes braille by piling up from the rear side of the paper by a needle. You don’t need any special software. You can print directly from a Microsoft Office, PDF file or multiple image data even if you have no knowledge about braille or graphic design.
TactPlus.™ is a revolutionary tactile printer which can prints braille and images.
TactPlus.™ is equipped with voice guidance, therefore, it is easy for visually impaired people to create documents as well. Currently, voice guidance supports eight languages and according to the customer’s needs, we plan to adapt to other languages. Within this year, the paper for color printing will also be released. The TactPlus.™ high-quality 3D image can be colored and is expected to be used in the design field.
To date, TactPlus.™ has been highly acclaimed by visitors at exhibitions for the visually impaired at trade shows such as CSUN2 and ATIA3 in the USA and Sight City4 in Europe. TactPlus. ™ also exhibited at the National Federation of the Blind in Las Vegas from July 8-11, 2019.
In recent years, accessibility is required in all fields, and we aim to spread the area of education and public services which is part of improving the learning environment and daily life of visually impaired people. In addition, we aim to expand into the field of graphic design in the future.
