[Athen] tactile graphics

I do like the IVEO system for creating talking tactile graphics for
students. One of my favorite features is the fact that you can add text to
your graphic that will then be read as text-to-speech. Some of the competing
products only allow recorded audio in the talking graphic, which I find much
more cumbersome.

Hi -

We are looking at purchasing ViewPlus's IVEO Hands-On Learning system for
visually impaired students who need to interact with graphics. Does anyone
use this system? Does anyone have another solution for tactile graphics?

Thanks so much for any help you can provide!

Best,

Karen
