Tactile electronic displays are usually intended for the blind. They use electro-mechanical parts to dynamically update a tactile image (usually of text) so that the image may be felt by the fingers.
Optacon, using metal rods instead of light in order to convey images to blind people by tactile sensation.

segment 9 segment 14 segment and 16 segment displays Some displays can show only digits or alphanumeric characters They are called segment displays because they are composed of several segments that switch on and off to give appearance of desired glyph The segments are usually single LEDs or liquid crystals They are mostly used in digital watches and pocket calculators Common types are seven segment displays which are used for numerals only and alphanumeric fourteen segment displays and sixteen segment displays which can display numerals and Roman alphabet letters Other types edit Vacuum
