Lego is launching Braille bricks designed for visually impaired children to enhance interactive learning and inclusivity. The set, priced at $89.99, includes 287 pieces that can be integrated with other Lego products. The bricks feature raised studs arranged in Braille patterns and printed letters underneath for assistance. The company also plans to provide audio and Braille building instructions for other Lego sets. Lego has already distributed Braille bricks to organizations focused on educating blind and visually impaired individuals.
The bumps on each brick are arranged to correspond to the numbers and letters in the Braille system, with the printed version of the symbol or letter printed below the bumps.
