The file 'Braille Generator 3D Printer Model' is (scad,stl) file type, size is 111.3KB.

Summary

This is a customizable Braille sign, that you can use to generate Braille from a text.

Using it as a generator

You can generate you own stl here on Thingiverse, clicking on Customize, and changing the parameter according to your needs.

Or, if you wish, you can also download the .scad file and open locally on OpenSCAD, and changing the parameters on the customizer tab.

Using as a library

You can also download this code and use as a library on your OpenSCAD model, but I strongly suggest you to use the code on my GitHub: https://github.com/lucasoshiro/openscad-braille. That is a cleaner code, better suited for newer OpenSCAD versions. The code available here has a lot of workarounds in order to make it compatible with the older version of OpenSCAD that Customizer uses.

Final considerations

This is a very simple generator, and this only converts numbers and letters. Accents are not supported yet (as it may change depending on the language).

If you are going to use it for real-life purposes, ask someone that can read Braille to double-check if the generated Braille is correct.
