Our Story

The genuine heart behind Visora.

In Avishi’s words

As a child I loved building things — Lego, robotics, math. Then, at eleven, I suddenly lost much of the vision in one eye. Surgery and a long, screen-free recovery meant I fell behind, and for the first time I understood how much learning depends on sight.

Every year my family visited a blind ashram; after my own experience, I saw their struggle differently. I learned that STEM barely exists for blind students in India — the resources simply aren’t there. So I set out to build them. I taught myself Braille, and Visora began.

Access, not profit

Visora exists to make learning accessible — not to make money. Everything is free: kits given at no cost, designs shared openly so anyone, anywhere, can reproduce them.
