<h1>braille_xr</h1>
<h2>problem</h2>
<ul>
<li>How can we help make XR (VR/AR/MR) accessible to people with visual impairments?</li>
<li>Current refreshable braille devices have ~40x6x2 actuators with carefully tuned long levers making them very expensive~$3,500</li>
<li>Not a very portable device</li>
<li>1 interaction method</li>
<li>Other interactions of input for people with low vision require voice input which is not always comfortable.</li>
</ul>

<h2>solution</h2>
<ul>
<li>Reduce the number of actuators</li>
<li>use spatial hand tracking for accessible and extensible interactions</li>
<li>create a comfortable and portable way to input braille</li>
</ul>
<h2>progress</h2>
<ul>
<li>easy to manufacture braille display</li>
<li>small enough to leverage openxr hand tracking</li>
<li>software demo braille keyboard w/custom layouts</li>
</ul>
