Event Info

Braille is a system consisting of six raised dots used by persons who are blind or have low vision.

The six raised dots are arranged in two parallel rows of three dots each and are numbered from one to six. Sixty-four combinations are possible by form of one or more dots to represent alphabets, numbers, punctuation marks and whole word. This talk gives a general overview of the Braille system.

Participants are able to get a hands-on experience to use Braille after the talk.
