Shapes inform users of different functionalities. For example, half spherical buttons without Braille label indicates number buttons (a), while rectangular buttons with Braille labels indicate function buttons (b). Users are also able to change settings to use symbols (c), Braille (d), or embossed letters (e) for buttons labels such as plus and minus.
