Orbit Teacher Remote

Orbit Teacher Remote presents an avant-garde solution for imparting braille instruction to visually impaired students with unparalleled ease. The app facilitates a virtual classroom experience that mirrors in-person teaching by leveraging the functionality of Orbit Reader braille displays and its Android app connectivity. It serves as an indispensable tool not only in times where distance learning is a necessity, but also in everyday educational settings, especially considering the scarcity of specialized instructors for the visually impaired.

This innovative platform empowers educators within mainstream environments to engage with blind students using devices such as smartphones, computers, or tablets. It establishes a Bluetooth connection with the student's Orbit Reader braille display to deliver immediate text translation of braille content being read or written by the pupil. The latest iteration extends its capabilities to function remotely over the internet, akin to screen-sharing tools found on conventional computers, allowing educators to monitor and directly interact with the student's braille display in real-time.

The system streamlines the learning process by making set-up a straightforward, one-time event guided by the interface itself. Subsequent connections are swift, aided by the connection history feature. The interface displays braille content in both braille and visual fonts, enhancing accessibility. Additionally, if the teacher pairs their own Orbit Reader, they can replicate the student's display on their device.

Comprehensive control over the student's Orbit Reader is retained, including file management and device configuration. With an integrated file-transfer functionality, sharing classroom materials becomes effortless. Supporting over 40 languages and the capability to translate contracted braille, it becomes a nexus for both students and instructors in bridging communication barriers and fostering educational growth. Orbit Teacher Remote not only simplifies the teaching process but also opens new doors for inclusive education worldwide.
