BAUM - Brand new braile device VarioUltra

Brand new braile device VarioUltra

VarioUltra is a brand new braille device from BAUM Retec that will change the way you think about refreshable braille technology.

Available with either 20 or 40 braille cells, VarioUltra is quite possibly the most beautiful braille device on the planet. Okay, we admit to being a little biased, but we are in love with VarioUltra and we believe you will be too.

Attractive, high quality, brushed aluminum construction that is light, robust, and looks and feels great.

Refreshable braille cells that feel crisp, and almost paper like.

A whisper-quiet 8-button braille keyboard that is ergonomically designed for all-day use. It feels amazing to type quickly with.

WORLD EXCLUSIVE: VarioUltra is the world's first braille display that supports simultaneous connection with up to 5 devices, and it remains connected. For anyone with more than 1 device, this feature above all others will fast become one of your favorite things.

Split personality. In addition to being the most connectable braille device in the world, a quick flick of a switch and VarioUltra becomes a basic braille notetaker, with a suite of productivity apps to make life easier.

Compact, lightweight design will have you questioning why other devices weigh so much. The included high quality carry case and strap will help protect your investment for years to come.
