In yaleBraille: Generate Braille-Enabled Graphics

Data visualization tools for low-vision and blind end-users

Description

This package provides plotting functions similar to those found in Base R, but with _br suffixes, indicating Braille-functionality. These functions deliver as output a two-page .pdf file: first page is a braille-annotated graph; second page is the text-based graph. Coding occurs via conventional syntax (i.e. text); translation is executed by the liblouis package. Graphical standards are adapted to facilitate printing onto swell-paper. For more information see <https://github.com/wininger/yaleBraille>.
