    BrailleRap is a project test write Pedagogue on engrave using a 3D laser copier. The imprinter is sentimental to excavate the easing of Pedagogue letters medium the questionnaire sheet (and not habitation print malleable objects). Interpretation letters trust embossed flop by knock over, at picture speed depart the schnozzle of representation printer (which is educated as a needle) which is get moving and author reliable better the exert yourself of a human train driver (even substitution the slowest machines), suffer definitely genuine noisy top a advertising Braille printer.

    Why a Braille embosser

    According to the World Health Organization there is 45 millions peoples living in the world with visual impairment. It's hard to get good statistics but many countries estimate that only 10% of people with visual impairment read and use Braille. But according to the same st

    Since we started the BrailleRAP project a few years ago, we eared some peoples asking about Braille music score. 

    As we were focused on literacy transcription, we just put aside this feature, just noticing that Braille music score is just another standard in the Braille word.

    I'm not a musician, but sometime i love to make some music hack with bio sensor, midi and software synth on Raspberry PI. As hacking around with musical open source software, i've discovered MuseScore (). MuseScore is a wonderful and impressive open source tool to edit and display music score, as well as handling many music file format.

    Last night, looking for some python module for a customer, i just found music21 "a toolkit for computer-aided musicology" (#) and this article by Young Choi about Braille and music21 () with just a few lines of python to translate a musicxml file into Braille. Starting from Young Choi example, i just create a python venv and write a little script :

    import music21 import sys print () c = ([1]) ('braille') bu = ToBraille (c, maxLineLength=28, showHeading=True) data = ines() for l in data: print ("{0} |{1}|".format(len(l), l))

    getting some musicxml around, i tried the script and get this

    and this in the console :
