Braille Smartphone Called VOIM For The Visually Impaired0


The two Korean designers Youngseong Kim & Eunsol Yeom have come up with an interesting concept of a smartphone called, Voim, which means “seeing” in Korean.
The smartphone has a lot of cool new features such as: route navigation, word recognition and object identification, all of this information is displayed in braille on a silicon screen or transmitted as audio via the detachable Bluetooth headset depending on what the disability the owner will have.
However phone applications & braille cell phones are already on the market, but a smartphone with all these features will be released in the near future. Checkout the gallery below to get a better idea of the braille smartphone.
