Abstract


The Visually impaired learning Braille is the best way to minimize difficulties in every face of life. Braille encoding, however, is difficult to learn for the child and needs the support of relatives or teachers in blind centers. Therefore, we conduct design research and test a multifunction device for Braille learning for visually impaired IOT technology applications with multiple self-study modes. The product system includes many modules encoding Braille for visually impaired, each module is used by a visually impaired person. Each device is connected to a system server that is individually designed by the authors team over the Internet. We implement the use of system testing with audience groups as blind students who are studying at the school of Education disadvantaged children in Thai Nguyen province and have achieved good results.
