I once suggested a similar project at our company. One of our products is labelled in braille. For technical reasons it was the easiest way to drill holes in the front plate and stick a transparent plastic insert through from the back.
My suggestion was to add a few blue LEDs behind it to light up those braille dots. It would have been meaningless for the intended user - but it would have looked way cool!
I often think of this sign I saw at a small children's playground with braille on it hung 6 feet in the air with no way to reach it.
Surely they could have made that a little more challenging than having a straight line?
