This is a machine that can convert various graphic formats/files into Braille patterns using software. In this way\, visuall y impaired and blind people can feel various shapes much better with an ex planation. This tactile experience makes it possible\, for example\, to fe el the shapes of plants\, a child in the womb or various hiking maps. With the device\, which is based on open source hardware and can be replicated by anyone\, you can create such tactile objects very quickly\, easily and cheaply using simple sheets of paper. Images\, graphics\, maps and even m athematical functions can be made tactile. The highlight: anyone can build and use these machines themselves with a little skill.\nTo take part\, yo u must register for the workshop by e-mail: maik.Jaehne@stadtfabrikanten.o rg \n\nAbout the Stadtfabrikanten e.V.\nThe association runs the FabLab C hemnitz\, an open DIY workshop in Chemnitz - also known as Karl-Mach-Stadt .
