Louis Braille was born in 1809 in Coupvay. He was a French teacher of the blind. He himself was blind from the age

of three, and in 1818 he went as a founding to the National Institute for the Young Blind in Paris. Soon showing

marked

ability in both science and music, he became famous in Paris as an organist and violoncellist. In 1826 Braille began teaching

the blind in the institute. Braille is known for his idea of modifying the Barbier “point writing” system, used for coded army

messages, to enable the blind to read. Point writing consist of embossed dots and dashes on cardboard: the Braille system

derived from it is used successfully today, in slightly modified form, and in many countries.
