Use a braille display with VoiceOver on iPod touch
iPod touch supports many international braille tables and refreshable braille displays. You can connect a Bluetooth wireless braille display to read VoiceOver output, including contracted and uncontracted braille and equations using Nemeth Code. When you edit text, the braille display shows the text in context, and your edits are automatically converted between braille and printed text. You can also use a braille display with input keys to control your iPod touch when VoiceOver is turned on.
For a list of supported braille displays, see the Apple Support article Braille displays supported by iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch.
