People with blindness have so many problems which are just little things for those who can see: they have a limited quantity of reading materials, they have difficulties connected with the usage of phones, and can't play games, so we want to eliminate this barrier and let them live a normal life.
Our solution is an innovative technology that allows showing ordinary text in Braille thanks to small solenoids.
Our device can be used by schools and educational institutions. It can be integrated in terminals and connected to smartphones, so people with blindness can scan any text, anytime, anywhere.
Currently, we have only one real competitor in the market, called Smart-Beetle. Nevertheless, our device is cheaper and easier to use and the main advantage is that Smart beetle works only with English text that has a translation to Braille, while Multicube works with every type of text in any language.
There are 338 million people living with blindness or moderate-to-severe visual impairment. In the US alone, there are more than 3.5 million students in special schools. To reach them, we plan to sell directly to consumers, but also to businesses and governmental institutions.
Our team consists of 7 members, who have participated in several business and engineering competitions. I myself have been awarded as the best IT student of Armenia in 2021.
We had already won some hackathons, competitions, and even have an offer for investment. During this accelerator, we have built several prototypes, changed software and switched coding language, and refined our business model. Now we are planning to make a final product by the end of the year and start sales in 2023.
And for that we require of investment, 300 thousand euro to build the first round of prototypes and advance towards mass production, buying all the necessary components and subcontracted services to build Multicube. In addition, PR support and market research will be needed ahead of sales.
We are a group of students who named their team in memory of their friend who died in the war in Armenia. We request your support to make the future brighter for people with visual impairment and allow them to live their life to the fullest.Hi! we are #FBF and we had made a device which is transferring text to Braille.
