Could the JAWS Braille Viewer help? I am unsure if it displays dot patterns
but it possibly does depending on options?

It is inaccessible to the actual JAWS user, its meant for sighted use.

 

The other way would be to take a picture of the display then have someone
photoshop overlay some dots.

Subject: [program-l] Capturing images of a Braille display in action for
game publicity.

 

Hi All.

 

Apologies for the cross posting.

As some of you may know I've created a game played on a Braille Display in
my spare time. As part of the publicity for the game I'd like to get some
images of the game being played. (not much use for the target audience but
will help those that can see understand the game.). I'm razing money for the
ClearVision library with the game and they'd like to put pictures in their
information.

 

Has anyone had any success getting pictures of a Braille display that show
clearly what's happening? My wife is a keen Photographer and the pictures
she's taken with her DSLR camera don't show which pins are up and which
aren't because the colours are the same and the pins are so small. Does
anyone have any ideas about how I could do this?

 

More information about the game I've developed, Dotris, and the work of the
ClearVision library can be found at my website, http://www.ndadamson.com

 

Thanks.

Nick.
