Siafu PC Concept Brings Higher Computing Functionality to the Visually Impaired

Siafu

Designer Jonathan Lucas is presently involved in the development of a PC called Siafu that is unlike any computer I have ever seen. It makes use of a material known as magneclay; which allows it to create a Braille surface for reading and can be used to render 3D pictures.

This is certainly a step up from screen readers and if the concept ever becomes reality, great news for the visually impaired.
