High Schooler Makes Affordable Braille Keyboard

A New Jersey teen built 3D-printed Braille keycaps to make keyboards affordable for the visually impaired.
A group of employees wearing matching light-colored aprons and baseball caps stand outside the entrance of Bitty & Beau’s Coffee on a sunny day, smiling and celebrating as the doors open. One employee in the foreground raises both arms high in excitement, while others clap and cheer behind him. A crowd of people lines the sidewalk, some holding phones to record the moment. A person using a walker stands near the front of the crowd, reaching out to greet an employee, highlighting an inclusive and joyful interaction. The storefront features tall black columns and large glass windows that reflect the surrounding city buildings. The scene captures a lively, welcoming atmosphere filled with applause, pride, and community support.
