Love of Music

Our family loves music. We have many piano players, two flutists, two trumpeters, an accomplished drummer and a bass guitar player. As our kids grow, it’s always intriguing to see where their love of music will lead them. So far, we do not have any string musicians, but that doesn’t mean I can’t dream. When I was a child, I learned the violin so I would love it if one of my kids chose something like the electric cello. I can almost hear the strumming now — what a beautiful sound that would add to our family band!

Technology marches on. Nowadays we have tiny little portable hard drives where once hard drives were so large and heavy that you couldn’t even lift them.

How about this…a touchscreen tablet Braille writer?

A modern Braille writer resembles a laptop with no monitor and an eight-key keyboard. Six keys create characters, one key is a return and the other is a delete key.

Here’s how it works. The user touches eight fingertips to the touchscreen and the keys move to the fingers. If the user becomes loses track of the keys, he only needs to lift all eight fingers off the touchscreen and then put them down again.

Touchscreen braille writers can accommodate users with small or large fingers. Users can even place the tablet around the neck and enter text with hands opposed.
