This study presents the development and deployment of Bee-Braille, an assistive technology designed to enhance digital literacy among visually impaired individuals. Bee-Braille is an innovative machine that transforms digital books into tactile Braille output, enabling blind users to independently access a wide range of reading materials. The system comprises a central server and multiple Braille reader devices, allowing users to select and read books stored in a digital library. Designed for use in inclusive library environments, the initial prototype includes three Braille machines connected to a shared server, facilitating simultaneous access to different titles. Bee-Braille has been distributed and piloted within communities of persons with disabilities and special needs schools in the Bekasi and Jakarta regions. The initiative aims to bridge the accessibility gap in education and information by integrating digital content with Braille technology, empowering visually impaired individuals to engage with literature and learning resources more independently and effectively.
