# Braille Reader
Upload a scanned braille document and get its English translation.
- **Stage 1:** YOLOv8 detects braille cells in the image
- **Stage 2:** ByT5 translates detected braille (Grade 2 contracted) to English
Supports Grade 2 (contracted) braille — the form used in 90-95% of real braille documents.
