  2. Braille translator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille_translator

    A braille translator is a software program that translates electronic text (such as an MS-Word file) into braille and sends it to a braille peripheral, such as a braille embosser (which produces a hard copy of the newly created braille). Typically, each language needs its own braille translator.

  3. Braille ASCII - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille_ASCII

    Braille ASCII (or more formally The North American Braille ASCII Code, also known as SimBraille) is a subset of the ASCII character set which uses 64 of the printable ASCII characters to represent all possible dot combinations in six-dot braille. It was developed around 1969 and, despite originally being known as North American Braille ASCII ...

  4. JAWS (screen reader) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JAWS_(screen_reader)

    Before JAWS 16, the Home edition was called Standard, and only worked on home Windows operating systems. [2] [3] A DOS version is free. [4] The JAWS Scripting Language allows the user to use programs without standard Windows controls, and programs that were not designed for accessibility.

  5. Braille Patterns - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille_Patterns

    By mapping each of the eight dots to a bit in a byte (in a little-endian order), and by defining "0"/"1" for not raised/raised per bit, every specific pattern generates an identifying binary number. So the pattern with dots 1-2-5 raised would yield (00010011) 2 , equivalent to (13) 16 or (19) 10 .

  6. Computer Braille Code - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_Braille_Code

    Computer Braille is an adaptation of braille for precise representation of computer-related materials such as programs, program lines, computer commands, and filenames. Unlike standard 6-dot braille scripts, but like Gardner–Salinas braille codes , this may employ the extended 8-dot braille patterns.

  7. Refreshable braille display - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refreshable_braille_display

    Refreshable braille display. A refreshable braille display or braille terminal is an electro-mechanical device for displaying braille characters, usually by means of round-tipped pins raised through holes in a flat surface. Visually impaired computer users who cannot use a standard computer monitor can use it to read text output.

  8. List of Unicode characters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Unicode_characters

    Windows, DOS, and older minicomputers used Control-Z for this purpose. 3 Control-G is an artifact of the days when teletypes were in use. Important messages could be signalled by striking the bell on the teletype. This was carried over on PCs by generating a buzz sound. 4 Line feed is used for "end of line" in text files on Unix / Linux systems.

  9. Braille embosser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braille_embosser

    A braille embosser is an impact printer that renders text as tactile braille cells. Using braille translation software, a document or digital text can be embossed with relative ease. This makes braille production efficient and cost-effective. Braille translation software may be free and open-sourced or paid. [1]
