Orbit Research has introduced two new families of refreshable braille devices: the Strata and Flow series. These new products expand the ways people experience braille and introduce Orbit’s first devices with piezo braille cells alongside our established TrueBraille technology.
The Strata family includes three devices designed for different ways of working with braille. The Strata 40 is a compact 40-cell braille display that combines Orbit’s signature standalone and connected capabilities with piezo braille technology. The Strata 40 Pro and Strata 20 Pro extend this platform into multimodal braille systems that bring together braille, speech, audio, online services, and built-in applications.
We are also introducing the Flow family of braille displays. The first device in this series is the Flow 40, a compact 40-cell braille display designed for seamless use with computers and mobile devices. With piezo braille cells, ergonomic navigation keys, and instant USB connectivity, Flow 40 delivers a smooth and natural braille reading experience.
Together, the Strata and Flow families provide more ways to experience braille through combinations of braille reading, speech, audio, and connected services.
The new lineup includes:
- Strata 40 – 40-cell braille display, features similar to the Orbit Reader 40
- Strata 40 Pro – multimodal 40-cell braille system, combining the features of the Orbit Speak and the Orbit Reader 40.
- Strata 20 Pro – Same as the Strata 40 Pro, but with 20 cells.
- Flow 40 – the first device in the Flow family, with only braille output
Shipping for the new Strata and Flow devices is expected in the second half of the year.
