A Literary Braille Language Translator to Spanish Text.

-
A set of scientists in Spain has thought of developing a Literary Braille Language Translator to Spanish Text. In this project, they have done in in a series of steps to get the final outcome. First the character recognition has been done to the Braille character image. Then the separation of information contained in each Braille cell were made in order to make the comparison with a database already established. After having done this comparison, the text contained in the image is exported using a graphical user interface as the next stage in the project. This has allowed the person to see the transcript in .txt format. In this project they have they have obtained the efficiency results in 22 images of text Braille, the total characters contain in each image and the errors found by observations to calculate the percentage of efficiency.

Blind Aid: A Self-Learning Braille System is the only Braille system that is capable to enhance the Braille writing and reading skills of a visually impaired individual without the need of a teacher. The designed system works on the text-to-speech technology and is capable to read documents. There are different and also popular devices for visually impaired people such as Speech Assisted Learning (SAL), Book Sense Reader, Eye-Pal Reader series, Electronic Braille pad and etc. There are also some web browsers like Audio-haptic internet browser and associated tools specially designed for visually impaired people to help them in internet surfing. This proposed device is user friendly Braille writing and reading tutor with the capability of reading documents and works on text-to-speech technology which is the assistive technology for visually impaired individuals. Process of this system is, the input can be provided by either typing through the provided Braille keyboard, or inserting text ...

Touchpad for the Blind to read text documents

-
Another project based on Image processing techniques is the  Touchpad for the Blind to read text documents done by the scientists in India to provide visually impaired people to access any printed document or softcopies available on computer. Here, they have used and image sensor to take the image. Through image processing techniques, text has been extracted. To make the hardware device, they have used microcontrollers just as several other researchers have used. And also for the propagation of the Braille character, solenoid actuators are assembled. Another major factor highlighted in this research is that the assembling of the Braille dots has to be compact so as to meet the standards of the Braille when denoting the size of a Braille character.
