Nippon Telesoft participated in the 18th WBU-AP General Assembly held in Ulaanbaatar, Mongolia from September 9th to 13th, where they exhibited braille printers and braille displays. The general assembly was attended by chairpersons and other executives of blind associations from 13 countries, including Japan, China, Korea, and Vietnam, who reported and discussed issues facing visually impaired people in their countries, and also reported on advanced examples of the use of ICT.

Nippon Telesoft will be participating in “SightMe,” which will be held in Sharjah, United Arab Emirates from February 13th to 15th. This is the largest exhibition of equipment for the visually impaired in the Arab region, and many related parties from the Middle East and Africa will be participating.
Our company will exhibit and demonstrate our Braille printer “Multi” as well as our Braille display “Seika.” This will be our first time participating in an equipment exhibition in the Middle East.

Nippon Telesoft participated in the Sight City exhibition of welfare equipment for the visually impaired held in Frankfurt for three days from May 18th, where they showcased their braille printer and braille display “Seika”.

This exhibition is a global-scale exhibition comparable to CSUN and ATIA in the United States, and attracted many visually impaired people as well as specialists from around the world, making it a great success. Demonstrations of the latest equipment were also held, including magnifying reading devices for the visually impaired, OCR machines with text-to-speech functions, and walking aids.

Our braille printer “GEMINI” is compatible with languages ​​from around the world and can print both braille and ink characters, which attracted the attention of stakeholders and led to new proposals for its use. There are other devices that can print quickly and inexpensively, but there is no other device that is quiet and supports both braille and ink characters in the world’s languages, so we expect overseas sales to increase in the future.

In addition to the portable Seika MINI, there are five other types of braille display “Seika”. A new prototype “PC Braille” with a built-in PC was exhibited, which attracted attention.
