Braille is a writing and reading system used by visually impaired people. The Braille system consists of a code of 63 characters, each made up of one to six raised dots the size of a pinhead combined in a Braille cell, which corresponds to a letter or number. Feeling these dots with our fingertips, we can write and read by touch.
