HODDER – A Fully Automatic Braille Note Production System

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: Lecture Notes in Computer Science ((LNISA,volume 4061))

Abstract

We present the software Hodder which is able to generate Braille Music Notes fully automatically. Thereby we focus on flexibility, readability, quality and translation speed. The software is designed to be used within a team of professional Braille note transcribers and to take over much of the tedious part of their work. Moreover the software is able to be used stand-alone.
