Braille Transcriber’s Kit: Countries and Continents (1-04102-00)

The Braille Transcriber’s Kit: Countries and Continents is designed for people who are blind or have low vision disabilities. It is a collection of embossed and printed outlines of maps commonly found in history, geography, and social studies textbooks. The embossed sheets may be used as templates when users create tactile maps. Users can add spur wheel lines, craft ink, glued-on textures, braille labels, and other features. The printed maps may be used as masters for swell paper tactile graphics. Users can photocopy the images onto capsule paper, add labels, lines, and symbols, and produce the raised image by running the graphic through the heating machine.
