Louis Braille certainly wasn't your average teenager. Blind from the age of four, he was only fifteen when in 1824 he invented a reading system that converted printed words into columns of raised dots. Through touch, Braille opened the world of books to the sightless, and almost two hundred years later, no one has ever improved upon his simple, brilliant idea.
路易‧布萊葉完全不是你印象裡的普通青少年,他四歲失明,在 1824 年發明了一套閱讀系統,當時他只有 15 歲,那套系統把印刷文字轉為一排排的突起點字,布萊葉讓失明的人得以透過觸摸來進入書本的世界,之後將近兩百年,還沒有人能更進一步改良他那既簡單又高明的妙點子。
