Examples

Matt Tominey, Cornell University, Director of Student Disability Services
The Tiger system has been very easy to learn and takes very little effort to translate visual information into tactile and Braille formats in a timely manner. I highly recommend the Tiger to all my colleagues who work with individuals with visual impairments.

Susan Queller, University of Arkansas, Director of Disability Support Services
Our Tiger graphics surpass by far what I have seen any other Braille printer produce.

Tom Johnston, Loughborough University, Mathematics & Accounting & Financial Management Student
I am studying mathematics and accounting and financial management at Loughborough University and it is the first time that I have been able to receive all my maths in a tactile format since I started.
More
Kent Cullers Ph.D, SETI R&D Director
The Tiger can certainly make the kind of Braille text everyone is used to in a quality unexcelled by any other embosser. However, it can also make Braille of a kind never before touched by human hand.
