GEMINI News

Nippon Telesoft exhibited their Braille display Seika and Braille embosser GEMINI at the Sight City exhibition in Frankfurt, Germany, from May 7th to 9th in 2008.
They were both very popular especially with German customers.
Government support for assistive technologies has recently been more restricted in Germany, making it difficult to sell existing expensive Braille displays, on the other hand something cheaper such as Seika by Nippon Telesoft has been more and more popular.
GEMINI was also popular for its ink and Braille simultaneous printing feature, so that it can print textbooks, a wide variety of information document, brochures, bank statement, etc.
Nippon Telesoft has two dealers in Germany and after it obtains permission numbers from the relavent insurance company, we will expand our sales in Germany.

[CSUN]Stevie Wonder

What’s good enough for Stevie Wonder surely has to be good enough for you, however we can’t make you sound like him, but you and our Braille Karaoke could live in perfect harmony, side by side on our Braille keyboard.
Our Braille KARAOKE was exhibited at the Nippon Telesoft booth at CSUN in the US in March 2008. Melody and lyrics on the Braille display SEIKA synchronise so you can sing-along with our Braille display. People who visited the booth grooved and sung with the Braille Karaoke.
Music star Stevie Wonder come to visit us spent for 20 mins singing along to his own million selling hit song ‘I Just Called To Say I Love You’ with the Braille Karaoke. He was very impressed with the synchronised Braille lyrics, then laughed and started to enjoy singing his song surrounded by cheering crowd.
After a busy and exciting exhibition this was a peaceful and joyful moment. Stevie also tried Kyu Sakamoto’s song SUKIYAKI.
