Bonocle has developed the first-ever braille entertainment platform for visually impaired people, allowing them to interpret the contents of any electronic device through the medium of braille. It does so while being both portable, powerful, and affordable. This is unprecedented — since many from the visually impaired community lack adequate access to digital content, mainly due to costly devices that currently offer braille technology. Bonocle also has an API that will allow developers to expand its usability by creating custom applications for Bonocle and the visually impaired community.
