Mountbatten Brailler Learning System

Mountain Batten Braille Writer

What is the Mountbatten Brailler?

The Mountbatten Brailler (MB) is the complete Braille learning center for children and their teachers. Extensive research and development has resulted in a design suitable for the very first stages of Braille instruction through to high school and even beyond. A professional resource, the Mountbatten Brailler offers exceptional connectivity and software to support flexible teaching and educational needs.

·         As a simple tool it can be used to develop awareness of Braille symbols and characters.

·         An easy correct and erase function means children are more willing to write their ideas.

·         Audio response reinforces learning and tells you what commands are being entered.

·         With the addition of a MIMic, teacher supervision becomes easy and continuous.

·         Connect a PC keyboard to enable sighted teachers, peers and even family to write in Braille.

·         Braille-to-print as well as print-to-Braille translation available.

·         It can be used as a graphics embosser encouraging the development of tactual skills.

·         In the MB Learning System a voice synthesizers enables file management and text editing.

·         Connect the Mountbatten to a PC and send files back and forward.

The Mountbatten is available in two models.

Mountbatten Writer
This standard model is ideally suited in the classroom for early Braille learners or for older students and adults who desire a simple Braille writer and embosser. Equipped with digitized speech, the Mountbatten Writer provides auditory reinforcement for keystrokes as well as commands.

Mountbatten Learning System
The Mountbatten LS adds synthetic speech to all of the features of the Mountbatten Writer. Early computer skills are learned with the introduction of editing files in memory and electronic note taking. The Mountbatten LS’s synthesized speech assists the student to create an assignment, edit, modify, delete or block text, producing the final copy in print or Braille, or both. Page formatting concepts are learned with the Mountbatten LS’s settings for tabs, automatic margins, erase and correct, and an array of other features that make Braille writing an enjoyable and successful experience.
