Nonprofit makes LEGO building accessible to blind creators with audio and Braille guides
A Massachusetts man, Matthew Shifrin, who was born blind, has launched a nonprofit called Bricks for the Blind to make LEGO building accessible. The group now offers free audio and Braille instructions for more than 500 LEGO sets, and builders can use AI apps to help identify colors. Shifrin says the effort began when, as a child, he couldn’t build sets because the instructions were only visual.
