Thank you for sharing. It's hard to find such video

That's where you're wrong, sir. the Moon alphabet actually has its own set of punctuation that mainly consists of dots.

Your videos are always a treat! I'm doing some research on the history of braille, where could I contact you?

This video solved my many years question how this works! Thanks!

It applies a voltage, not a current.

wherr can i acquire/buy the cell module?

I own a Perkins Brailler, and I repair and donate them. I believe that these machines are an important tool for anyone that may benefit from it's use. everyone should have access to the tools they need to be successful in life.

A great demonstration of using a long white cane. I got jabbed and the handle hit a healing wound. Then, a couple of days later, I fell drown (launched) three stairs. I landed on my elbows and knees. I had an O and M lesson a couple of days later and had a lot of confidence. Then, I went back to work and have not trusted the cane. I think that I use my sight too much and do not concentrate. I stopped practicing this summer. , As it has been over 100 degrees.

Ecxellent video. Where did you buy your pins? Thank you in advance.

Thank you for being honest. Braille is difficult. I’m trying to learn at an older age in case my eyesight gets worse.. I might try jumbo braille to label items.

Like your channel. Please do a video on the new Ambutech Pathfinder 360° 2-Inch rolling ball. It rolls in any direction.

As a white cane user with low vision the lack of audio on this video makes it inaccessible. A white cane is a tool for independence however the lack of audio on this video means I'm dependant on someone with sight to replace my elastic- very disappointing.

I would love to get a complete system dump of your SD card.

How'd you come across this unit and what required its disassembly? I've got one with adb enabled and accessibility services disabled and am trying to perform a factory data reset.

Hello, can i ask more about how this braille typewriter works? I was wondering if i pressed 3 keys. Does the writer already print the dots or it was waiting for the keys to be released? If the answer is the second option, then i was wondering again if i released one of the 3 keys that i already pressed. Then the expected output is 2 or 3 dots??

thanks for a heritage video.. useful

How much is the moon writer worth

I heard that this was the original version of braille

I have a white trecking pole with a red tip. it is for ID and stability and I love it.

why is my brailler making ghost dots

Thank you for sharing

Hi Charlie! I just wanted to thank you for this sharing your knowledge! I'm visually impaired , recently with Stargardt disease and was looking to get some different monoculars than the 8x16 I got from my local clinic, and was struggling to find an affordable brand I felt I could trust. Seeing the ones you linked though, I see that they look identical to my Mattingly monocular just without the name, and at literally a tenth of what I was charged! Emboldened by the safety of Amazon's return policy, I'm looking forward to trying these and comparing! Basically just wanted to say thanks for providing a information and a link to what brand you guys actually recommend for people to get for themselves! It helps a lot, especially with how little information on these devices is out there in general for low vision individuals, let alone information aimed them instead of aimed at physicians / instructors. Anyway, hope you do well in things! Subscribed and checked out some videos like the one on the Moon Writer. Super neat and informative videos you have here!Thank you very much again for this video and it's description!

I learned about this from omniglot, but it's really hard to find information about it, even videos on it. I wish it never have gone obsolete because it's so beautiful 😍

I literally just came across your video while I was searching for reviews on the 32 cell from Maxi aids… I knew I wasn’t going crazy when thought that I I saw one of these little critters!! Lol! Great video!

Where did you get your ID cane? I can’t find any short lightweight ones

Interesting. I've seen people learn moon if they don't have enough touch sensativity to learn braille, but I've never seen anyone actually write in moon.

Congrats Charlie on your latest addition to your channel! It was a most riveting tale! Soon you will have a rather big channel! See you soon!

These devices are made by METEC. They are piezoelectric devices operated by a DC voltage of 200 volts. They are not current operated.

It's a memory metal. Run a current through the "tweezers" and the metal on once side contracts, causing the tweezer to bend and push up the dot. Remove the current and it straightens out and lowers the dot.

Hi! just wondering have you made it work? I mean do you have a video where you apply current ?

Is there a particular corner we should be marking? Is punching the top right of the bill the standard?

This was so interesting. 🦯

Ha, been calling my mobility care and id can for years. Didnt know there was a difference

Hi Charlie! Thanks for this. I just happened to acquire one of these by chance...had no idea it was rare. It seems to be in much better condition than yours (apologies)...though it came to me atrociously packed and the paper support arms have broken off. I was wondering: do you know how to disassemble this machine enough to clean it? I checked your vids but if you have anything I wasn't able to locate it. I've found such a video for the Perkins, but am afraid to just try to follow that willy-nilly in case something about this machine is set up differently.

Thank you so much for the information! I recently found an almost identical piece of card with a Bible verse Sandwiched between the pages of an 1890s Bible. Rather fittingly it was Isaiah 42:16

Very informative video. Thanks for the background of the Cane. I really enjoy the identification came . Are use mine as well, and crossing the street or connecting with buses.. Don’t necessarily need one for mobility just to let others now that I am visually impaired.

Sadly RNIB haven't sold or made braille pocket watches for decades now, but I'm glad you were able to get hold of an old one.

thanks !

Really impressive... Thanks for sharing it!

How do I mark my $100's

I recently learned about black cutting boards. It was super helpful seeing it in action- the high contrast makes such a big difference!

You could try opening a Dot watch , they most likely do not use piezo , I’m curious to know how the Braille cells work in that watch .

Where do buy the red, reflective cane? Thank you.

I just took one year of German, and the translation seems pretty spot on, but the one word seems to be Punktschrift. The capital P and lowercase R are weird in this typeface, as see in Oskar Picht. The word now translates to braille, but is made up of "punkt", meaning point, with some connotations of poking, and "schrift", meaning writing. So more literally, point/poke writing, which is pretty apt.

Really enjoy your videos! Will you ever open up an Orbit Reader 20 as these don’t use piezoelectric cells? I would be curious to know how they work, maybe some kind of solenoid with a locking mechanism.
