DGT Echo Chess Clock

DGT proudly presents DGT Echo, a speaking chess clock for blind and visually impaired players. It is available from September 2020.

At the touch of a button it informs players of their own remaining time or their opponent's remaining time.

DGT Echo is the audio version of the widely used DGT3000 chess clock and has these extra advantages:

• All settings and clock times are spoken in the English language
• Striking color combination designed to suit visually handicapped players
• Braille buttons and audio Quick Guide for ease of use
• Two earplugs included; clock sound levels adjustable for each player

This is actually pretty cool. The last time that I saw a chess clock for the blind or visually impaired was a Garde analog chess clock. The bold color scheme suggests running out of time will "sting like a bee." Thoughts?

Interesting Concept
