Tactile-Talk -- Tactile Talk for the discussion of the display and use of graphics on refreshable Braille platforms
About Tactile-Talk	English (USA)
This list is sponsored by the National Federation of the Blind, NFB, and the Science and Engineering Division of the NFB. The name of this list is Tactile-Talk. It is a place to discuss Graphical Tactile Displays and their use to show pictures and graphical data used in STEM and other disciplines. Initially the list will primarily discuss the Monarch from the American Printing House for the Blind, and the Graphiti from Orbit Research. As they develop, other technologies can and should be included. The list is for announcements, asking questions, exchanging tips and tricks discussing strengths and weaknesses of given technologies, and anything else that relates to the display of graphics on refreshable devices. We are excited by the emergence of this new area and want to help it grow and prosper. The list is moderated by John Miller. You can reach him at: johnmillerphd@hotmail.com If you have any technical difficulties, please contact David Andrews at: david.andrews@nfbnet.org To see the collection of prior postings to the list, visit the Tactile-Talk Archives.
