> When you read, you use the Braille Display to read only. So how do you provide input feedback to the machine such as filling out text boxes or selecting radio buttons?

Many Braille displays also have keys for input including chorded input and allow you to enter text via Braille input from the display to the browser or whatever app is being used. Also the Braille keys can be used for navigation purposes.

Here is an article about the support on iOS
