In humanity there are several people with visual impairment, thus calling this condition to the total or partial loss of sight. In the research carried out, the ergonomic design of a device that is integrated by 4 writing, reading, traction and printing systems is presented. The design of the device was made through 3 phases, the first corresponds to the design process of the systems mentioned above, the second to the ergonomic design of the device and control and the last to the integration process of all the systems described above. With the development of this design is intended to benefit people who have visual impairment by helping them to the process of their learning and also develop in these people various communication skills, with this device is intended to facilitate reading and writing with the Braille system for people with this disability and in the same way provide them with a more ergonomic and easy to use design.
