Abstract
This paper proposes a new device for a portable braille device using Atmega128 and solenoid magnets. This braille device is composed of three panels, and each panel has six solenoid dots. This device aims to help the disabled people who cannot communicate with others. As an application example, when a disabled people approach a traffic light, it sends a message via Bluetooth to the proposed device letting people recognize a dangerous area. The message converted from the database is based on standard braille chart.
