What is the use of Braille embosser? Is it to be used to create educational material for visually impaired children?
The content of the magazine would be created on the computer using the multilingual editor developed by IIT madras. The multilingual editor allows for typing of material in different Indian languages.(in the present case, we would begin with Tamil).The software has provision for computer generated Braille which permits text in Indian languages to be read through the conventional six dot system. Braille codes have been recommended for Indian language aksharas and the IITM software can generate the language specific Braille codes or simply the Roman transliteration of the text. The Braille embosser would be connected to the computer to produce copies of the Braille content.
