There are total 37 million blind people across the world. Out of that 15 million are from India. These people are unable to access the documents or electronics media which are not available in Braille scripts. Here we are implementing enhanced Braille system that helps blind people to read text or content. We scanned image form camera, processed that image by image processing techniques and same will be converted into text using OCR. The detected text will be given to raspberry pi which recognize every character and convert it into Braille code. With the help of solenoid, we are displaying that Braille code on Braille.
