World's first Voice Controlled Tactile User Interface.
Despite its dire need in education, Blind students especially in lower and middle income countries have limited access to information in Braille and Tactile Images.

With a Voice User Interface, we believe that interaction with Tacilia will be intuitive for Blind users. They will be able to simply talk to Tacilia to display any Braille and Tactile Graphic Information.
