Being born blind is one of the biggest curses that can fall on a human being, but what can make his life worst is the disability to write and though both the things are interrelated, the latter flaw could now seemingly have an answer. A robotic pen christened the McSig is the one that could change their lives by giving them the ability to write and all one has to do with it is to gently guide the hand. The McSig uses a haptic device known as the Phantom at the tip of the motorised arm that in turn is capable of moving and refrain(ing) the movement in three dimensions. It combines the movement with stereo sound that guides the student’s regarding the movement of the pen. Since the development cost of McSig is high, the researchers who’ve developed this pen believe that similar software applied in a refined form could see this pen falling in every deprived person’s hand, making life a touch simpler for them.
