| Notes: | For 285 million blind and visually impaired people worldwide, only 3% of all text content is available in braille. Dot Translate is the first AI braille translator working at near-human accuracy. Trained with millions of highly accurate translation samples, made accessible through an intuitive web interface, Dot devices and other digital braille devices. Formats and sources cover a wide range: type, e-pub, pdf, txt, doc, rtf, html, voice and even translating whole websites. Existing braille translation software works by applying a small set of pre-defined rules, which doesn’t cover many cases. Because of the complex nature of existing translation systems and high cost we set out to make a more accessible, accurate translation. By using a machine learning based system, we were able to provide a wide range of formats more fitting to human context instead of the ambiguous content previously available. And because usage is key to improving accuracy, we made the software free to use for both braille readers and non-readers around the world. |
