ABSTRACT

Braille system is the main method for the blind and visually impaired people for acquiring the reading and writing skills. Considering their disability, efforts were dedicated to facilitating the learning with Braille. Studying Braille system at the specialized canters and schools is not easy for all the involved blind and visually impaired people. Moreover, making the learning process independent of others is very useful. This project presents the design and implementation of a Self-learning Braille application for the blind and visually impaired people on the smart devices. This project describes an Arduino based Hardware Implementation of the Braille teaching device, where the problem of existing method can be abridged. This project implements a Braille Script Teaching Aid in which the presence of combination of six vibration motors is operated using the input got from the Arduino. All these vibration motors are controlled using Relay. This method provides an easy way of teaching Braille Script. Some self-learning programs are developed to make students to learn without the help of a teacher. It is well suited for first time learners. We can teach different languages with the same setup by selecting the language based on the requirement.
