Hello:
That is what sharpeye, which is included in the goodfeel bundle that Dancing 
Dots sells, does.  Of course, the accuracy of the scan will depend on many 
factors, such as the complexity of the music, the print quality, and even in 
the best cases, we do not claim that a totally blind person can independently 
scan their music and get satisfactory results.  When used as part of the 
goodfeel package, sharpeye is meant for sighted teachers, musical directors, 
etc. to use and then make the necessary corrections so that an accurate braille 
 score will be produced.

  Hello all, I’m curious about how sheet music is actually written.  I know 
that Braille music is a totally different animal from Braille literature and 
I’m wondering if their’s some program that would enable some one to scan some 
printed music and then have jaws read it back in some form or another.  I hope 
I’m clear enough in what I’m asking.  Thanks
