Visually impaired individuals have difficulty accessing everyday information in braille, which limits their access to information on items such as medicine labels and household goods. Existing braille label printers areexpensive (approximately $1,250)and require specialized knowledge, such as the use of a dedicated braille keyboard, making them difficult for the average person to use. Due to these limitations, even non-disabled caregivers or pharmacists find it difficult to provide braille labels, which hinders independent information acquisition for the visually impaired.

Nemonic Dot instantly prints accurate braille stickers with automatic conversion from 100+ languages by simply speaking or typing text into a smartphone app, without requiring separate braille knowledge. It uses its own extrusion press technology to produce uniform 0.6mm high braille dots that meet international standards and is the first portable braille labeler capable of printing on metal surfaces. It supports both 6-dot and 8-dot braille systems, and is differentiated from existing products by allowing even non-experts to easily create braille labels with AI speech recognition and a multilingual braille translation engine. In particular, the intuitive voice-to-braille output interface allows anyone to generate braille without complex PC connections or special input methods.

Visually impaired individuals or their families/caregivers can purchase it directly for home use, and demand is also expected from organizations supporting the visually impaired, special schools, and libraries (B2C & B2B). In addition, pharmacies, hospitals, etc. can introduce it to provide drug information in braille labels, increasing the possibility of B2B sales to healthcare institutions.

Adoption in thepublic sector (B2G)is also expected through government and local government assistive technology device distribution projects.

The product operates based on braille standards, so it can be used regardless of country or language, and already supportsmultilingual braille translation (100+ languages)targeting the global market.

There are no special regulatory restrictions, and since it is an assistive technology device rather than a medical device, the barrier to market entry is relatively low, allowing entry into various countries. Providing API/SDK allows it to be linked to existing systems such as pharmacy software, increasing scalability across the industry, and future links with other fields such as braille education or smart city accessibility infrastructure are also expected.

Nemonic Dot won theBest of Innovationaward at CES 2026, recognizing both its technology and social value.

It was praised for its intuitive and practical design, with exclamations like"Why didn't this come out sooner?" and was evaluated as a truly innovative solution for the socially disadvantaged. In terms of technical completeness, the quality and stability of braille output have been verified, and the accuracy of AI braille translation is also high, leading to high market expectations.

However, although the market size is limited by the fact that the braille-using population is limited, policy support for improving accessibility is increasing, so it does not appear to be an underestimated solution (market reactions are generally positive).
