A READING METHOD FOR BLIND PEOPLE VIA AN ELECTRONIC DEVICE AND ELECTRONIC READING DEVICE FOR BLIND PEOPLE

摘要

The method comprises using an electronic device (1) which integrates activable areas (11) distributed in a configuration of rows (N) and columns (M); a processing unit for processing a text file and converting it into Braille text; a speed controller (12, 21) for controlling an activation speed of the activable areas (11); and a driver (15). The processing unit a) feeds the characters of the Braille text to a log of the driver (15) in the form of a succession of elements, the driver b) uploads a first element of the succession of elements into a first column (M1) and subsequently c) moves it to a second column (M2). Finally, an electric pulse is generated, either in step b) or in step c), in the first column (M1), or in the first and in the second column (M2), when the driver (15) receives an activation signal (/LE).
