Dotsies    Dotsies

Dotsies is an alphabet that uses dots instead of letters. It was invented by Craig Muth and is optimized for reading. The letters in each word smoosh together, so words look like shapes. Each letter has 5 dots arranged vertically that are either on or off (black or white). It currently has a mapping for English.
