One of the most iconic accessibility inventions is the Braille Alphabet. However, few know that it wasn’t Louis Braille who actually came up with it. Rather, it was a French soldier who tasked with inventing a secret code for Napoleon, Charles Barbier, who created the raised and coded alphabet. In 1821, Barbier went to the school for blind children attended by Braille and brought his twelve-dot code with him. It was too difficult for soldiers in Napoleon?s army to use, but young Braille realized that it might work for blind children. He simplified Barbier?s code, reducing it to six dots, and invented one of the most popular reading systems we have today.
