Braigo
Braigo (Brai-lle +Le-go) is the name of a Braille printer design. Braigo version 1.0 uses a Lego Mindstorms EV3 kit,〔(Braigo news report BusinessInsider - Braigo News Report )〕 which includes a microprocessor with assorted components such as electric motors, sensors and actuators. Braigo v1.0 was designed by 13-year-old Shubham Banerjee in January 2014, as an entry in 7th grade school science fair project.〔(CNN-Boy genius makes braille printer from Lego )〕 The cost was said to be about 350 USD 〔(Lego Shop - Mindstorms EV3 )〕 or 250 Euros for the Lego Mindstorms EV3 kit and some extra commonly used hardware whereas a conventional Braille printer retails starting from about 1,900 USD.〔(Google Shop - Cost of Braille Printers )〕〔()〕 Over the summer of 2014, Banerjee reported about working on 'Braigo v2.0' which promises to be a consumer version of a braille printer/embosser. In August 2014, a new company called Braigo Labs Inc. was formed〔http://www.braigolabs.com Braigo Labs Inc.〕 with an office in Palo Alto, California. Since Shubham Bannerjee is a minor, his mother Malini is listed as the President of the company and the law firm Inventus Law acting as advisor. On September 9, 2014, at the Intel Developers Forum (IDF 2014), at the Mega Session: The Next Revolution in Computing: Edison, Wearables, and New Devices with Intel VP & GM, Mike Bell, Banerjee demonstrated 'Braigo v2.0', which promises to be the world's first - most cheapest, silent, IOT enabled, and light weight braille printer or embosser using new patent pending technology along with the Intel's Edison Chip with associated development board to bring a consumer oriented braille printer/embosser to the market. == The inventor ==
