Abstract:
At present, visually impaired individuals do
not perform or engage much in art. They do not draw
paintings because they do not have the ability to draw a
world unknown and unseen before. New emerging
softwares are developed within the world and the
success of it is enjoyed only by the visual impaired who
can afford it. The conversion of image to braille and
getting a braille printout of the image is the main aim of
the new software application. By studying previously
developed systems, new features were identified.
Reducing the complexity of the software solution and
providing the main output of a well converted image
from the basic shape to complex image conversions will
be made possible. With the results of the survey
conducted for the research it emphasized the necessity
of inventing a software solution to give the opportunity
to the visual impaired to engage in art using braille.
