Picture of VARIO 40 --- DISCONTINUED. (Verified 4/2012) REPLACED BY THE SUPERVARIO2 40. RETAINED IN DATABASE FOR REFERENCE. --- The Vario 40, also sold under the names RBT 40 or Rabbit, is a refreshable braille display designed for use by individuals who are blind or have low vision. This portable 40-cell braille display unit is designed to work with standard desktop and laptop PC systems. It includes an expansion chasis with a storage drawer which enables a computer keyboard or laptop to rest directly on the braille display unit.

Multiple protocols enable this device to be used with a variety of screen reading programs and protocols can be updated to account for software upgrades.
