Kids may be smarter but hey, we can operate a totally obsolete telephone.

This reminds me of last summer when my 10 year old told me how she was in a car and there was an arm you had to turn to make the window go up and down.

Yes, they are

A 12-year-old student from California has created a Braille printer by repurposing parts from a Lego set.
Shubham Banerjee, a seventh-grade student from Santa Clara, Calif., developed the Braille printer using toy construction Lego pieces. The low-cost invention could be an accessible solution for blind and disadvantaged people across the globe, Banerjee said.

The printer, dubbed Braigo (short for Braille with Lego), was created from the Lego Mindstorms EV3 set, which retails for $349. Banerjee also added $5-worth of additional materials, which means the finished product costs about $350. This makes Braigo much more affordable than other Braille printers, which can retail for more than $2,000, according to Banerjee.
