Rules and Guidelines

Pilot is currently only available on iOS devices. Winning the pilot requires a demonstration of the score earned using a connected Braille Display.

No personal data is collected on the students, the app requires students to create their own username which will appear on the leaderboards as scores are announced.

The challenge will take place from the 1st of September and continue until the 31st of October. Leaderboards will be updated regularly and players must remain tuned to this page to view the leaderboard.

Students may redo the challenge multiple times to improve their score. Winners will be announced via email and posted on Bonocle’s website/social channels. Any misuse of the platform may result in disqualification.
