They have something for folks who can't read braille. It's a Braille Interpreter
glove.

Luckily there is some though process being invested in the Braille Interpreter, a single-finger glove that features a tactile sensor, a Bluetooth headphone and interpreting software.
The index finger portion of the glove hosts the said tactile sensor. Skim it over the Braille surface and it sends a feed to the main device housed on the back of the glove. Over here the feeds are interpreted and beamed to the headphone via Bluetooth as voice data.
Skim-Interpret-Hear Voice; nifty enough solution for those who can’t cope with Braille.
