Braille is a very important tool for blind people to have independent access to information and reading. Designed to overcome barriers. However, braille also creates barriers. Reading a braille book together with a blind child, for example, is difficult if you can't read braille.

Yet so much more is possible. In fact, braille is increasingly being used for other applications.
