1. INTRODUCTION
In this world not all people are blessed with sight. Sighted people usually get hugeamount of information from various places, or ways like graphics, diagrams, flowcharts,graphs, logos and pictures. There are many forms of graphic communication around us.Translating this information from graphics to tactile graphics, in the form of Braillecharacters, make it accessible for the visually impaired reader which would prove to be a boon for them.Presently Braille books and Braille Printers are used for teaching in a blind school. Butduring the teaching session the books are not available to every student at the same time.The Braille books and printers are also expensive. The Braille Encoder can prove to be acost efficient solution for classroom teaching for the blind. Computer compatibility of theBraille Encoder will ensure better learning efficiency and speed.Thus if we try to implement the Braille Encoders in a blind school the student teacher relationship can be maintained and the teaching can be done efficiently. The only thingthe teacher needs to do is to setup the Braille assembly for the students.4

MOTIVATION
The motivation came from an exhibition in pune a few months back, which hostedvarious projects for the blind, like a stick for the blind which would sense the depth andwidth of a hole in the road and a buzzer would be sounded to inform the person. Our friend actually visited the place and gave us the idea about an electronic way of readingfor the visually impaired. Thus our friend was a great source of motivation for this project.5
