  Visually impaired people are integral part of the society and it has been a
must to provide them with means and system through which they may communicate
with the world. In this work, I would like to address how computers can be made
useful to read the scripts in Braille. The importance of this work is to reduce
communication gap between visually impaired people and the society. Braille
remains the most popular tactile reading code even in this century. There are
numerous amount of literature locked up in Braille. Braille recognition not
only reduces time in reading or extracting information from Braille document
but also helps people engaged in special education for correcting papers and
other school related works. The availability of such a system will enhance
communication and collaboration possibilities with visually impaired people.
Existing works supports only documents in white either bright or dull in
colour. Hardly any work could be traced on hand printed ordinary documents in
Braille.
