A braille keyboard is made specifically for people who cannot see. This makes it easy for them to type what they want to say. However, the disadvantage is that it is not set up the same way a traditional keyboard is.

∙ 6y agoAssuming that someone using a braille keyboard is blind and not well acquainted enough with the keyboard layout to use a regular one...I can't imagine any other advantage than being able to know what keys one is pressing.
If one was not blind and using a braille keyboard, I suppose it would be a possible advantage if you use it to learn the braille alphabet and numbers more quickly.

What country do they sell a braille keyboard?
It depends what you mean by 'Braille keyboard'. If you mean a keyboard for use on a computer - most keyboards already come with a raised area on the 'home' keys of 'F' and 'J' so a person can position their hands without looking. If you mean a keyboard to type in Braille - contact your local blind charity - they'll have contacts of companies that manufacture the devices.
What are the parts and functions of the braille keyboard?
There are two types of braille keyboards. The most common type of braille keyboard is the chorded keyboard used on the Perkins brailler and on electronic braille notetakers. These keyboards do not have a separate key for each letter. There is one key for each dot of a braille cell. To type one letter, all of the keys that correspond to the dots in that letter are pressed at the same time. The brailler or notetaker advances to the next letter after the keys are released. A spacebar is located below the main keys. Occasionally, one may find a computer or typewriter keyboard that has been labeled with braille letters. Most blind people do not use these, as they learn to memorize the keyboard layout and type by touch. Good sighted typists use the same memorization techniques to speed up typing. Typically, labelled QWERTY keyboards are only used by young children, newly blind adults, or people with additional disabilities who have difficulty memorizing the keyboard layout. Please see attached links for pictures of the braille keyboards on the Perkins brailler (a braille typewriter) and an electronic braille notetaker.
