The “industry standard” modules used in digital braille displays are custom piezoelectric devices, costing around $100 per “letter,” making such displays impractically expensive for most applications.

I just learned about this hackaday prize winner, who has designed digital, refreshable modules that cost less than $1 each, using teeny-tiny magnets and 3D printed parts.

I wasn’t able to find any technical information on their website about how their device works, just that it’s “a revolution in affordability”
