Braille typewriters capable of implementing physical braille have great limitations in the complexity of usability and price, plus requires learned proficiency to use them. In addition, the voice guidance function of the smartphone has difficulty accessing personal information in places where others are. Therefore, TEX.ure proposes a solution using speech recognition and braille. When the user speaks the information, the device recognizes the voice and stores it as Braille data for future viewing. For a more convenient memo, one can intuitively grasp the location and function of each part by using the curved surface that you can follow with your fingertips. Through this, everyone regardless of disabilities can enjoy convenient life without being blocked by physical limitations.
