The Braille Cloud is an introduction to modern assistive technology. It is designed to be the best way to learn braille either independently or with an instructor. The line of large braille cells along the bottom and standard braille cells at the center are refreshable braille cells; they include electronically-driven pins that pop up to form braille characters.

With a smaller style Perkins braille keyboard a learner could learn the proper combination of keys to press to form each letter and receive auditory feedback from speakers or headphone jack. The braille version of a letter would be electronically displayed in the jumbo and standard-sized braille cell simultaneously.

The upper row of large braille cells allows the student to create braille characters. These ‘MagnaBraille’ cells use only a magnetic stylus and tiny metal or magnetized tactile elements. The magnetic stylus will enable users to make braille letters, numbers, words, and short sentences.
