The concept for the Braille punch card is that every letter in Braille is formed by six dots. The surface of the punch card has embossed Braille on it. The embossed Braille, when pressed, gets flattened. Thus the required letter can be typed. Braille punch card, being portable and easy to write as such it helps the visually impaired people to write down notes more practically, and will not be restricted to any fixed environment.
