Development of images to braille conversion software for alphabets using template matching and rule based

An images to Braille Conversion Software/Hardware (Alphabets) is a system that helps Blind people to read available reading materials.The current system only can support uppercase English alphabets from A to Z using six dots.Hence,to complete the current system,we have developed a complete images...
