Abstract

Automatic recognition of Braille characters remains a challenge in the field of computer vision, especially due to variations in shape, size, and lighting conditions in images. This research proposes a two-stage system to detect and recognize Braille letters in real time using a deep learning approach. In the first stage, the YOLOv8 model is used to detect the position of Braille characters within an image. The detected regions are then processed in the second stage using a classification model based on the MobileNetV2 CNN architecture. The dataset used consists of 7,016 Braille character images, collected from a combination of the AEyeAlliance dataset and annotated data from Roboflow. To address the class imbalance problem—particularly for letters T to Z which had fewer samples—oversampling and image augmentation techniques were applied that makes the final combined dataset contained approximately 7,616 images. The system was tested on 1,513 images and achieved strong results, with average precision, recall, and F1-score of 0.98, and an overall accuracy of 98%. This two-stage method effectively separates detection and classification tasks, resulting in an efficient and accurate Braille recognition system suitable for real-time applications.
