For even more capability, use b.note with the esysuite software on your PC, transforming it into a full braille notetaker, complete with braille math, music creation, editing, and seamless translation between print and braille.

As a leading brand in the braille industry for the last 30 years, eurobraille provides a wide range of assistive technology products and services for blind and visually impaired people; for study, work and daily life.

Founded in 1980 by French multi-patents holder and the inventor Ioan Montane from Politehnica University of Bucharest, the company was first named MIW. The company was dedicated to innovating electronic systems and components development. In 1987, the company began research, development and manufacturing of products for the blind and visual-impaired people. The fast-moving success of this new business led Ioan Montane to create a new independent company in France for this specific market : eurobraille sa.

In 1988, eurobraille launched its first product dedicated to the blind community, Mistel. This development features a screen reader with speech synthesis and a braille keyboard. Then a 20-cell braille display, BrailTel, was launched the following year.

In the 90’s, a spectrum of braille products was developed and offered a wide range of portable and workstation devices such as Junio-noteBraille or Clio-pupiBraille. In 1997, eurobraille developed a range of products dedicated to the Education environment: a software that turns math braille into math formula, readMath, and a braille display that features a word processing program, a spreadsheet and a calculator that can be connected to a laptop, Clio-azerBraille 4.

At the beginning of the millennium, eurobraille continued to develop high-quality and innovative braille displays, note-takers and software for blind people, such as Scriba, Iris & esys ranges.

In 2011, the company introduced esytime, an integrated braille notetaker and display working with an evolutive Windows 7 platform. This device is compatible with all screen reader software, which allows access to the Internet and comes with software dedicated to Education named esysuite, which includes a translation mode for math, music and contracted braille (grade 2).

Located at Maisons-Alfort, at the gateway of Paris, the eurobraille manufacturing workshop is formed by a team of technical experts and developers who design and manufacture braille displays, note-takers and software. The sales team is composed of technical sales reps and trainers who work with the individuals, companies, schools or ministries.

Sales, service and support for eurobraille products is available in North America through Irie-AT Braille & Low Vision, as well as Irie-AT distributors throughout the region. Contact Irie-AT to find a reseller in your area.

In 2021, eurobraille entered a new era with the brand new refreshable braille display b.note.

This new range – available in 20 or 40 cells and in light version – is set to revolutionize the braille display market with its new features: docx, odt and pdf files transfer to Android and WIN devices and vice versa, audible speech synthesis with headphones, or curser routing keys allowing the user to move forward or backward on the display.

In 2022, eurobraille introduced the innovative new b.book 32-cell braille notetaker. Utilizing the powerful internal software, esysuite, b.book has incredible power. Besides being a powerful braille notetaker, b.bookis also a full Windows computer.

Other innovative projects will emerge in the future and will further strengthen eurobraille’s key role in the visual-impairment assistive products market.
