Description


The Mantis Q40 means you don't have to choose between a keyboard and a Braille device (or squeeze both onto your desk). You can type using the keyboard and read your words (or someone else's) on the refreshable braille display.

You can quickly switch between contracted and uncontracted braille, as well as between qwerty input and Perkins-style braille input as needed.  

Small and light enough to fit in a laptop or tablet bag, the Mantis Q40 includes built-in apps: a basic text editor; a book reader to download and read Braille books; a calculator, a clock; and a file manager to organize your work. It also has HumanWare's thumb keys and home button.

Removable rechargeable batteries provide 15 hours of battery life. The battery is charged via a USB C cable (included with a USB charger plug).  

The Mantis Q40 has 16GB of internal storage and the memory can be expanded via the SD card slot or by plugging a USB drive into the USB A port.

The Mantis Q40 editing app supports DOC DOCX TXT BRF and BRL formats while the library app supports BRF PEF TXT HTML DOCX NISO and RTF. DAISY books are also supported.

The Mantis Q40 is compatible with Windows 8 and above using JAWS 18+ NVDA and Narrator; MacOS 10.15+ Catalina and iOS 13.5.1+.  

It can connect to up to five Bluetooth devices at once with a USB connection.
