DEVICE FOR WRITING IN BRAILLE AND/OR IN AUDIO MORSE CODE FOR USERS WITH VISUAL IMPAIRMENTS AND/OR A MOTOR DISORDER

摘要

A device and method for operating a device for writing in braille and/or in audio Morse code is disclosed, for users with visual impairments and/or a motor disorder, so that a user can take notes in real-time without the need for additional accessories, which comprises a housing (6) with an aspect and size similar to a common writing pencil, which comprises: a push-button (1) projecting from an end of the housing (6) of the device; a sound piezoelectric (2) mounted within the housing (6); a microcontroller (3), mounted within the housing (6), in connection with: a memory (4) for storing data, the push-button (1) by means of an input of the microcontroller, and the sound piezoelectric (2) by means of an outlet pin of the microcontroller; wherein the microcontroller (3) is arranged to measure, each time the push-button (1) is actuated by the application of pressure, a time of pressure of the button, and to store said time of pressure in the memory (4), wherein the stored times of pressure are grouped on the basis of the similarity of the times of pressure in order to be recognized in a first group as a perforation and in a second group as an unperforated point.
