Speech-to-Braille Labelling: Understanding the Nemonic Dot

Discover the world’s first speech-to-Braille label printer with Clint Yun from Mangoslab, creators of the Nemonic Dot. Learn how this innovative device aims to make Braille labelling accessible for both blind and sighted users, and the key accessibility concerns it raises.

In this episode, Steven Scott and Shaun Preece sit down with Clint Yun, the mind behind the Nemonic Dot, a portable voice-activated Braille labeller. Clint explains how the device allows users to speak a label into a companion app, which then embosses Braille onto plastic or even metal labels. While designed to help sighted family members, friends, and caregivers create Braille labels, the conversation quickly turns to the importance of inclusive design so blind users can independently operate the device.

The hosts also share personal stories about accessibility, usability, and the importance of considering blind people as end users—not just passive recipients. Later in the episode, they dive into listener emails covering topics like the experience of “light shows” for blind people, discussions on eye removal for pain or visual disturbances, and the challenges of dating and relationships with a disability.
