The 3D Printable Braille Typeface Project

thingiverse

After seeing some typefaces designed with Braille in mind I decided to take it on to try and create a new one that extrudes a custom 2d typeface with braille embedded on top. I created the letter forms in Adobe illustrator then imported svgs in blender to extrude and shape. These are currently sized in accordance with <a href="http://www.brailleauthority.org/sizespacingofbraille/sizespacingofbraille.pdf " title="this documenation"> this documenation</a>. They can be scaled larger or smaller for whatever needs may arise. This piece is heavily influenced and inspired by <a href="http://brailleneue.com/" title="Kosuke Takahashi's incredible braille Neue project"> Kosuke Takahashi's incredible braille Neue project</a> and other exploratory works that have come before. If there are any specific changes or applications/mistakes I've made please comment.
