Abstract

Today, where information and communication play a central role, it is essential to ensure that visually impaired people can develop their skills in the Braille system. This gives them a powerful tool to access knowledge, communicate knowledge, communicate efficiently, and participate actively in daily life. This paper documents the development of the mobile application called Vide, which is focused on teaching the tactile Braille reading and writing system to visually impaired people, using the agile framework Scrum, having the requirements specification, design, and construction as part of the development cycle. For the validation, the proposed "System Usability Scale" tool was used to validate the purpose of knowing the appreciation in terms of usability that the selected users that the selected users have in the interaction with the application. In the application, a similar percentage of user satisfaction is evidenced. Satisfaction.
