Product Description

The 5th generation of the Focus 40 Blue is a durable, lightweight braille display drop tested to MIL-STD-810G and designed to take on the challenges of every-day bumps and scrapes. Its user-friendly keyboard, convenient front panel controls, and retooled braille pins make for smooth and quiet operation. With Bluetooth connectivity for five devices, a USB-C port, and tough, compact, portable design, the Focus 40 Blue ensures reliable operation whether you’re on the go at work, travelling the world, or simply relaxing at home.

Refreshable Braille Display – 5th Generation!

The fifth generation of the Focus 40 Blue braille display is more rugged and stronger than ever. We’ve built the housing from aluminium and steel, added bumpers to absorb shock, and physically isolated the Braille cells to create a Braille display to meet the demands of the active user.

And, like previous Focus Blue models, the fifth generation is lightweight and compact with a user-friendly keyboard and control layout. You can have up to five Bluetooth connections so that you can easily connect to iOS and Android™ devices such as smartphones, iPads®, and tablets. You can also use the Perkins-style keyboard for effortless Braille text input to control your computer. When you combine the Focus 40 Blue with JAWS®, you have the ultimate in speech and Braille access to your computer.

The Scratchpad feature lets you take notes and read books even when you aren’t connected.
