Graham Hicks, who is deaf and blind, tests a system that enables a Braille computer to send messages to a mobile phone display.

A person with full vision can use the phone to type a message that the Braille computer then relays to the deaf-blind person.

Humanware, the company that makes the DeafBlind Communicator, employed Mr Hicks to write an evaluation report of the system.
