Nippon Telesoft Participates in SightCity 2024 Held in Frankfurt, Germany

Nippon Telesoft exhibited at SightCity 2024, held in Frankfurt, Germany, from May 15 to 17.
The event brought together over 100 companies specializing in assistive technologies for the visually impaired, presenting a wide range of devices and software. Approximately 5,000 participants, primarily from across Europe, attended the exhibition.

Nippon Telesoft has been participating in SightCity for over a decade. This year, the company showcased its range of braille displays and the braille printer GEMINI, which prints both braille and ink text simultaneously. The GEMINI printer attracted particular attention from educators, many of whom were eager to learn more about the product.

Among the braille displays, the newly released PC-integrated braille display and the Android-compatible Seika Mini V2, which supports SIM cards for standalone connectivity, drew strong interest, with many visitors expressing a desire to purchase.

Visitors to Nippon Telesoft’s booth came from countries including Poland, Kosovo, Italy, France, Spain, Portugal, Israel, Finland, Norway, Belgium, and South Africa. Discussions led to the signing of distribution agreements with representatives from these regions.

While manufacturers from China and South Korea had a larger presence this year, Nippon Telesoft was the only exhibitor from Japan. The exhibition featured numerous innovations, including advanced video magnifiers and white canes with embedded electronics, making for a highly productive and forward-looking event.
