Abstract
The estimated number of visually impaired people in the world is 285 million, 39 million blind and 246 million low-vision This project is about creating a device for people with faulty eyesight. Blindness is the phenomenon of partial or total losing of eyesight, named in the published literature as „poor eyesight", due to neurological or physiological factors.This device is a keyboard that can be connected to any computer, phone or tablet via cable. The keyboard will have twelve buttons, six of them are predefined, and the other 6 form the Braille language cell.
