In 1824, 15-year-old Louis Braille created a reading and writing system for the blind and visually impaired, known as braille, in which raised dots represent the letters of the alphabet. His creation has played a major role in enabling the blind to experience more independence. Each year, on his birthday, we celebrate him and his life-changing invention.
