Vendors of Paper Braille Scanning Software
This is a an interesting category. Many organizations need a way to optically scan their existing stock of paper braille, in order to create electronic files.
Some organizations spend a considerable amount of money maintaining a legacy library of braille volumes, many hand created. While using OCR on the corresponding inkprint is a possibility, it would be quite time consuming and expensive.
If you know about a project or a product to scan paper braille (even if not successful), please submit it to this list.
