Why a Perkins Next Generation Brailler?
In over 170 countries, individuals of all ages have made the Perkins Brailler® their product of choice for writing
braille. Fifty seven years after its unveiling, the Perkins Brailler remains at the forefront of international braille
literacy efforts, both in schools and daily living.
Employment statistics prove that braille literacy is essential to productive, independent living for people who are
blind. The Next Generation Perkins Brailler weighs 25% less than its predecessor, meaning that more children
around the world who are blind can carry their braille writing machines to and from school.
“Essentially, the Next Generation will increase the possibilities for learning,” said Perkins Products General Manager
David Morgan, who orchestrated the re-design. “That’s what we’re all about.”
