본 논문에서는 기존의 점자 학습 제품의 단점들을 보완한 점자 교육 시스템을 다룬다. 시각장애인 전용 어플리케이션은 사용자 편의성을 위해 터치 제스처 및 음성 안내를 통하여 전체 기능을 수행할 수 있도록 구성한다. 점자키트는 아두이노와 3D 프린팅을 통해 교육 목적에 맞게 제작한다. 시스템은 다음과 같은 기능들을 지원한다. 첫 째, 초성·종성·모음·약어 등 기초적인 점자의 학습. 둘 째, 단계별 퀴즈를 풀어 학습한 점자를 확인하는 기능. 셋 째, 모르는 점자가 있을 때 번역하는 기능이다. 실험을 통한 터치 제스처의 인식률과 점자 표현의 정확도를 확인하였고 번역의 경우 의도한대로 번역이 되는 것을 확인하였다. 이 시스템을 통해 시각장애인이 효율적으로 점자를 학습할 수 있다.

The purpose of this study provides the conceptual and practical framework on the strategy to enhance services for the visually handicapped in the braille libraries. In order to achieve this purpose, the questionnaires, the interview, and the observation of the data collection techniques are used in the study, and the braille libraries throughout Korea which are in operation are selected as subjects for the research and survey. The results of the study are summarized as follows. 1. Most of the braille libraries, about 70%, are located in Seoul. It thus appears that this geographical unbalance cause the visually handicapped inconvenience in use, who is especially living at the regions where no braille library is located nearby. 2. To enhance the efficiency of the library services for the visually handicapped, first of all, the limited scope of the subject as well as the poor volume of the collections should be resolved as soon as possible. 3. Most of the libraries are neither equipped with necessary facilities to publish in braille nor secured the supporting instruments which facilitate to use library services for the visually handicapped satisfactorily. 4. The collections for the visually handicapped consist of the brailles and the recordings mainly. Because the visually handicapped is difficult to access and visit at the libraries alone, these materials are generally circulating rather outward by postal service than inward. 5. The qualified staff who has the very responsible position for reading and circulation is required to have educational background in library and information science, to have passions for the visually handicapped, and to have abilities to understand and translate the materials in braille.
