Award: Graphite Pencil

Touchable Ink, the world-first printing ink invented exclusively for visually impaired people is the game changer solution that can commoditize the braille embosser to be affordable and accessible. This will give them full ability to read by themselves in order to unlock their potential.
By turning the normal laser printer to be braille-embossed printer using the extra fine embossing powder as a toner, this helps make the blind people be able to print braille documents by themselves for reading and learning at home with no limitation, both texts and visuals.
